The Effectiveneness of a Digital Intervention (the HM4MH-app) on Perinatal Psychological Wellbeing: Randomized Controlled Trial
Karolinska Institutet
440 participants
Mar 10, 2025
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
As many as 25% of pregnant women report mental health problems such as depressiveness and anxiety. This is a major concern as mental illness during pregnancy can have severe and long-lasting consequences for the pregnant woman, the baby, as well as the partner. Digital interventions (e.g., apps) have shown to be promising in promoting mental wellbeing, at scale, however, the majority of tools have been developed and evaluated in a general population rather than tailored for pregnancy. The objective of this trial is to investigate the effectiveness of a new digital tool (HealthyMoms4MentalHealth-app) on mental health outcomes during the perinatal period.
