Study type | Interventional |
Perinatal depression occurs in 15% of pregnant women and new mothers, yet as few as 1 in 5 receive adequate treatment. It has a negative impact on the woman herself, as well as a potential for serious consequences for her child. Virtual psychiatric care is a potential model that may provide accessible mental health care during this time, as barriers to in-person care often include unpredictable infant schedules, competing childcare demands, or travel/cost challenges. The Virtual-PND intervention consists of 12-weeks of the option of supplementing in-person psychiatric care with secure, in-home real-time video-visits through the Ontario Telemedicine Network. This pilot RCT will demonstrate the feasibility of proceeding to a future large-scale RCT evaluation of virtual psychiatric care for this population.

---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Recruitment Feasibility (Recruitment Feasibility) | The number of women recruited to the study at each site | One year from when the study starts enrolling participants | |
Secondary | Edinburgh Postnatal Depressive Scale (EPDS) | The investigators will measure depressive symptoms using the EPDS, a self-report, 10-item depression screening measure that has been validated for use in pregnancy. EPDS scores >12 are predictive of a diagnosis of major depressive disorder. | At 12 weeks post-randomization | |
Secondary | State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) | The investigators will measure anxious symptoms using the STAI, a self-report, 40-item anxiety screening measure that has shown good discriminate validity in perinatal populations. STAI scores >48 are predictive of having an anxiety disorder diagnosis. | At 12 weeks post-randomization | |
Secondary | Parenting Stress Index, Short Form (PSI) | The investigators will measure stress in the parent-child relationship using the PSI short form, a 36-item measure which consists of three sub-scales. | At 12 weeks post-randomization | |
Secondary | Recruitment Feasibility (Recruitment Eligibility) | The proportion of participants eligible to participate at each recruitment site | One year from when the study starts enrolling participants | |
Secondary | Recruitment Feasibility (Enrollment) | Average length of time from enrollment to 1st psychiatrist visit | From enrollment to first treatment visit | |
Secondary | Intervention Acceptability (Qualitative - participants) | Virtual-PND Participant Program Evaluation Questionnaire. This is comprised of Likert-type scale questions to elicit feedback on acceptability of the virtual care experience and model. | At 12 weeks post-randomization | |
Secondary | Intervention Acceptability (Qualitative - physicians) | Virtual-PND Physician Program Evaluation Questionnaire. This is comprised of open and closed-ended questions to elicit feedback on the acceptability of the virtual care experience and model. | At 12 weeks post-randomization | |
Secondary | Intervention Acceptability (Patient-Reported Costs) | Patient-Reported Costs Questionnaire. This is comprised of open and closed-ended questions regarding: a) time spent travelling to visits and on missed work; and b) cost of travel, food, childcare and data charges. | At 12 weeks post-randomization | |
Secondary | Intervention Acceptability (Clinical visits) | Medical chart review - number of psychiatrist visits (overall, in person, and virtual), and number of minutes per visit. | Between randomization and 12 weeks post-randomization | |
Secondary | Trial Protocol Adherence (Study Measure Completion) | Proportion of participants who complete follow-up measures. | At 12 weeks post-randomization |
