2026년 5월 25일 업데이트: Emma Motrico, University of Seville
Universal Prevention of Maternal Perinatal Mental Disorders and Its Implementation as Normalized Routine Practice (e-Perinatal): A Cluster Randomized Hybrid Effectiveness-Implementation Trial
This study is part of the ERC-funded e-Perinatal project and represents a large-scale hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation cluster randomized controlled trial.
The primary aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of a personalized and complex mobile health (mHealth) intervention (e-Perinatal) in the universal prevention of maternal perinatal depression and anxiety disorders.
Secondary aims include evaluating the impact on paternal mental health and child development, as well as examining implementation outcomes in real-world primary healthcare settings.

상세 설명
This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness and implementation of the e-Perinatal intervention, a personalized mobile health (mHealth) psychological program designed for the universal prevention of maternal perinatal depression and anxiety disorders. The study will be conducted as a two-arm, cluster-randomized, hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation trial in routine maternal care settings within primary healthcare centers.
Primary healthcare centers will be randomized to either the intervention or control arm. Participants will include pregnant women and their partners.
The primary objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of the e-Perinatal intervention in reducing the cumulative incidence of maternal perinatal depression and anxiety disorders, assessed via structured diagnostic interviews. Secondary objectives include assessing maternal and paternal mental health outcomes, child development outcomes, and identifying moderators and mediators of intervention effectiveness.
In addition, the study will evaluate implementation outcomes, including acceptability, feasibility, adoption, fidelity, and barriers and facilitators to implementation in real-world healthcare settings.
Participants in the intervention group will receive access to the e-Perinatal app alongside usual maternal care. The e-Perinatal app includes: 1) Digital micro-interventions focused on psychological, physical activity, and healthy lifestyle domains; 2) a personalized recommendation engine; 3) a social support section; 4) mental health monitoring; 5) an 'SOS' button for assistance; and 6) an appointment reminder tool. Participants in the control group will receive usual maternal care.
