MomMoodBooster VA Program

Perinatal DepressionPostpartum Depression

The MomMoodBooster intervention is an empirically validated treatment for postpartum depression symptoms. The intervention was created by Brian Danaher and Milagra Tyler, who have continued to update the intervention technology and content. The intervention is now available for pregnant and postpartum Veterans, and it is accessible on browsers via computer, tablet, or mobile phone. The intervention contains six cognitive-behavioral modules that span six weeks, and it includes identification of pleasant activities, tracking mood and thoughts, and identification of goals. The current trial is an expansion of a nationwide service delivery project that has been ongoing for six years with the goal of offering the intervention to postpartum Veterans nationwide. Within that study, Veterans completed the online modules in concert with weekly phone coaching calls wherein coaches applied the content to the Veteran's current life. In addition, two booster modules and associated coaching calls were developed to continue application of the skills beyond the six-week intervention period. The present study seeks to investigate the incremental utility of the phone coaching component of the intervention by randomizing pregnant and postpartum Veterans to the MomMoodBooster intervention or the MomMoodBooster intervention plus phone coaching. Primary outcomes will include depressive symptoms, behavioral activation, and negative automatic thoughts.

Online MBI for Families Affected by PPDA

Postpartum DepressionPostpartum Anxiety

The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility of delivering clinical mindfulness groups for families affected with postpartum depression and anxiety (PPDA). Families with PPDA are a vulnerable population who already face challenges during the postpartum period, but now the Covid-19 era has brought extra challenges - lower availability of family members or support systems to help in person, older children at home as childcare facilities are closed, etc. Clinical mindfulness groups are now being run online to support this population, with the current barriers of having to stay at home. Through this study, we want to capture the challenges that both clinicians and participants might face using virtual platforms (e.g. technical difficulties), to see whether online delivery of clinical mindfulness groups is feasible.

Initial Intervention Efficacy for an Online PTSD Intervention for Pregnant Women

Perinatal ProblemsPost Traumatic Stress Disorder1 more

The current study aims to test a brief computer-assisted intervention (psychoeducation + skills) for pregnant women with elevated PTSD symptoms. In this open trial pilot feasibility study, 20 pregnant women in their first trimester will be invited to participate in the study if they endorse elevated PTSD symptoms. Oxytocin and cortisol will be measured at baseline, one month post-intervention, three months post-intervention, and post-delivery to inform the relationship between these hormones, PTSD symptoms, and peripartum/postpartum outcomes. In addition to receiving the psychoeducation + skills intervention during their first trimester, women will be offered a "booster session" intervention following delivery to enhance utilization of skills during a critical period for maternal mental and physical health outcomes.

Experiences From Pregnancy and Post-partum Period in Women With a History of Eating Disorders.

Pregnancy RelatedEating Disorders3 more

Women with the eating disorder bulimia nervosa (BN) have been found to have a higher risk of unplanned pregnancies than healthy women, and experience greater miscarriage, premature birth, birth complications, and postpartum depression. Other studies have found that women with eating disorders seem to find motivation to refrain from the eating disordered behavior for the sake of the fetus, but that it is highly different whether this gives sustained or only a temporary remission. Eating disorders are rarely detected in the primary health care service, nor during pregnancy or during follow-up in fertility clinics. Meeting a health care provider in the pregnancy care service who does not know about the eating disorder or who does not understand the disease well enough, can also make the management and experience of pregnancy and weight gain extra difficult. The aim of this study is to increase the knowledge on how women with a history of eating disorder experience their bodily changes, and how they experience the health service in pregnancy care and post-partum period.

Previous study revealed that probiotics may improve the infant's discomfort caused by functional gastrointestinal disorders. Thus, this study aimed to investigate whether probiotics use in neonate and infant improve their mother's life quality?

Public Health Nurses received training to deliver a day-long Cognitive Behavioural Therapy-based workshop for treating postpartum depression. Participants in the study are randomly assigned to the treatment group (1-day CBT workshop) or control group (usual postnatal care). Data will be collected from all participants at baseline, 3 and 6 months. The study will aim to assess the feasibility of our methods and estimate the treatment effect of the primary outcome in preparation for a larger RCT. Objectives include: Recruit and randomize 96 participants within 5 months Questionnaire completion - 75% of participants complete all three questionnaires and structured interviews Retention - 75% of participants remain in study until completion 75% of participants in treatment group complete the intervention Estimate treatment effect and variance

Chronobiology, Sleep Related Risk Factors and Light Therapy in Perinatal Depression: the Life-ON...

DepressionDepression7 more

In a 3 years longitudinal, observational, multicentre study, about 500 women will be recruited and followed-up from early pregnancy (10-15 gestational week) until 12 months after delivery. The primary aim of the present study is to systematically explore and characterize risk factors for perinatal depression (PND) by prospective sleep assessment (using wrist actigraphy, polysomnography and various sleep questionnaires) and blood based analysis of potential markers during the perinatal period (Life-ON study). Secondary aims are to explore the relationship between specific genetic polymorphisms and PND (substudy Life-ON1), to investigate the effectiveness of BLT in treating PND (substudy Life-ON2) and to test whether a short term trial of BLT during pregnancy can prevent PND (substudy Life-ON3). The characterization of specific predictive and risk factors for PND may substantially contribute to improve preventive medical and social strategies for the affected women. The study results are expected to promote a better understanding of the relationship between sleep disorders and the development of PND and to confirm, in a large sample of women, the safety and efficacy of BLT both in prevention and treatment of PND.

Randomized Controlled Trial of the Alma Peer Mentoring Program for Pregnant Women Experiencing Depression...

DepressionDepression1 more

Women have double the odds of getting depressed as men and commonly experience depression during the childbearing and early parenting years. Many new and expectant mothers who experience depression never receive help. Alma is a new program, collaboratively developed by a team of researchers, clinicians, and mothers who have personal experience with depression, to support women experiencing depression during pregnancy and the postpartum period. In the Alma program, mothers who themselves have experienced and recovered from depression during the perinatal period, are trained to provide peer mentoring to depressed new and expectant mothers. Peer mentors are trained by professionals who are experts in using skills to recover from depression. These skills are informed by an evidence-based framework called Behavioral Activation (BA). Peer mentors do not provide psychotherapy and are not licensed mental health providers.
