Mental Health in Adults and Children- Frugal Innovations (MAC-FI): Adult Depression Component (MAC-FI)

May 26, 2022 updated by: John O'Neil, Simon Fraser University

Mental Health in Adults and Children: Frugal Innovations

This stepped wedge, randomized controlled trial will test the effectiveness of a Supported Self-Management intervention for depression among adults in Vietnam. The intervention will be delivered at the community level in 8 Vietnamese provinces by primary care providers and social workers. The intervention group will receive the Supported Self-Management intervention, while the control group will receive enhanced treatment as usual. The primary outcome measure for depression is the Self-Reporting Questionnaire-20 (SRQ-20). The World Health Organization's Disability Assessment Scale (WHODAS 2.00 and the CAGE (Concern/Cut-down, Anger, Guilt, and Eye-opener) measures are also used to assess functional ability and alcohol misuse.
