Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to test whether the innovative intervention, "Strength for U in Relationship Empowerment" (SURE), reduces the frequency of IPV more than an attention, time, and information matched control condition in perinatal women seeking mental health care.


Clinical Trial Description

Intimate partner victimization (IPV) is a significant social and public health problem among perinatal women. IPV places a woman at high risk for several psychiatric disorders, which transforms the perinatal period from an already challenging process into a potentially overwhelming one. IPV and untreated mental illness during the perinatal period poses a dual risk of adverse physical and emotional outcomes for women and their developing fetus/infant. Given the high rates of IPV among women who seek mental health treatment, mental health clinics compared to other medical settings (e.g. primary care) are more effective sites for focused case finding and intervention. In addition, the presence of IPV increases the likelihood of disengagement from treatment, which could further compromise the health and safety of women and their fetus/infant. Despite the high-risk profile of women with IPV and mental health illness, there are low screening and intervention rates of female mental health patients with IPV within mental health settings. The objective of this R01 Award is to fill this critical gap by building upon our promising pilot findings to test whether the innovative intervention, "Strength for U in Relationship Empowerment" (SURE), reduces the frequency of IPV more than an attention, time, and information matched control condition in perinatal women seeking mental health care. The investigators propose a two-group, randomized controlled trial in which 186 perinatal women with IPV women seeking mental health care who will be assigned to either (a) SURE, a computer-delivered, single-session brief intervention plus one interventionist-led phone booster that is consistent with motivational interviewing and informed by the literature on effective interventions for our target population and targeted risk factors, or (b) a computer-delivered control + one interventionist-led phone booster condition. Computer-delivered follow-up assessments will occur at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after the baseline assessment. Anticipated 25% of planned enrollment recruited by 5/14/2021. Anticipated 50% of planned enrollment recruited by 2/15/2022. Anticipated 75% of planned enrollment recruited by 8/15/2022. Anticipated 100% of planned enrollment recruited by 2/13/2023. Anticipated completion of primary endpoints data analyses by 6/28/2024. Anticipated reporting of results in ClinicalTrials.gov by 6/30/2024. ;
