Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of the proposed research is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a virtual group session which is intended to be offered universally to Spanish-speaking parents of newborns/infants attending pediatric primary care. The virtual session is intended to (1) enhance patient/family education about postpartum depression (PPD) and (2) Provide an orientation to families regarding relevant clinic and community psychosocial support resources available. The investigators will conduct a single-arm, open pilot of the session, which will be co-delivered by existing clinic staff (including social work and community outreach staff). Session contents include (1) Introduction to clinic staff, contacts, and resources (2) A video-recorded testimonial of a patient with a history of perinatal depression followed by a group discussion about/reflection on the video; (3) Review of prevalence and signs of PPD; (4) Discussion of clinic PPD screening procedures and rationale for screening; (5) Discussion of self-care and mood monitoring; (6) Discussion of relevant local resources, including information about availability of primary care resources for parents (including uninsured parents) and information about resources addressing social needs. The overall aim of the project is to Develop and pilot a virtual group augmentation of standard individual well-child care to improve (1) clinic screening procedures, discussion about and initial management of maternal depressive symptoms with immigrant Latinas and (2) patient symptom recognition, symptom disclosure, and subsequent treatment engagement

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Satisfaction as assessed by the Intervention Satisfaction Survey 8 items, 5-point likert scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), higher scores indicative of higher satisfaction. No established cutoff. Completed by parent participants within 2 weeks of attending video group session
Primary Acceptability of intervention Measure 4-question pragmatic measure designed to assess construct of intervention acceptability as perceived by participant. 1 = Completely disagree, 2 = Disagree, 3 = Neither agree nor disagree, 4 = Agree, 5 = Completely agree. Cut-off scores for interpretation are not yet available; however, higher scores indicate greater acceptability Completed by parent participants within 2 weeks of attending video group session
Primary Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM) 4-question pragmatic measure designed to assess the perceived fit, relevance, or compatibility of an intervention/innovation for a given practice setting, provider, or consumer; and/or perceived fit of the innovation to address a particular issue or problem. Questions assess the degree to which the respondent agrees with the following statements: (1) "The intervention seems fitting", (2) "The intervention seems suitable"; (3) The intervention seems applicable; (4) The intervention seems like a good match. Possible responses include: 1 = Completely disagree, 2 = Disagree, 3 = Neither agree nor disagree, 4 = Agree, 5 = Completely agree. Cut-off scores for interpretation are not yet available, however, higher scores indicate greater perceived appropriateness 1 week

Secondary Change in mental health care stigma as assessed by the Stigma Concerns about Mental Health Care (SCMHC) scale The SCMHC is a 3-item measure assessing stigma-related barriers to the utilization of depression treatment (internalized stigma, fear of stigmatization, and stigma from family in seeking mental health care). Responses are coded as (0) disagree, (1) agree, and (7) don't know/refuse. Respondents receive one point for each response of "agree," which indicates agreement with the stigma-related barrier. The total scores range from 0 to 3 with
higher scores indicating an increased internalization of stigma to mental health care
Completed by parent participants at baseline (pre-session); within 2 weeks post-session; and 6 months post-session
Secondary Change in Depression Stigma as assessed by the Adapted Personal Stigma Scale (PSS) 7 items, assess personal attitudes towards people with depression. Items answered on 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (strongly disagree) to 4 (strongly agree). Total scores range from 0 to 28, higher scores indicating higher levels of personal depression stigma Completed by participants at baseline (pre-session); within 2 weeks post-session; and 6 months post-session
Secondary Change in Postpartum Depression Knowledge as assessed by Adapted Postpartum Depression Knowledge Measure Measure of participant knowledge about postpartum depression knowledge- adapted and translated from the Ontario Rapid Risk Factor Surveillance Survey. Questions include whether the participant has heard of the concept of postpartum depression, asks participants to name symptoms of postpartum depression, and asks participants how common they would estimate the condition to be. There is no standard scale/scoring. Completed by participants at baseline (pre-session); within 2 weeks post-session; and 6 months post-session
Secondary Change in Intention to disclose if developed postpartum depression symptoms as assessed by questionnaire Single-question item: If I felt down, depressed, hopeless, or having little interest or pleasure in doing things I would try to contact someone at this clinic. Responses are no (0) and Yes (1) Completed by parent participants at baseline (pre-session); within 2 weeks post-session; and 6 months post-session
Secondary Intention to seek primary care as assessed by questionnaire Developed for this study, single likert scale question, asked of participants who did not have an identified primary care doctor at baseline: As a result of the video group session, I plan to identify a doctor that I can see regularly for my own check-ups. Adapted from National Latino and Asian American Study completed within 2 weeks of attending video group session.
Secondary Mental health utilization as assessed by the Mental Health Service Utilization Single item, adapted from National Latino and Asian American Study Baseline, 6 months post-intervention (completed by parent)
Secondary Psychosocial Resource Utilization as assessed by questionnaire Question developed for this project and translated/certified, assessing use of clinic ancillary services discussed in the intervention: In the past 2 months, have you used any of the resources that were discussed in the video session or on the clinic website? 6-months post-intervention, completed by participant
