Optimising internet-based cognitive–behavioural therapy programme to prevent perinatal depression: a unified protocol for two harmonised randomised controlled trials
Overview
This protocol outlines two harmonized randomized controlled trials involving 2,400 pregnant women to evaluate internet-based cognitive-behavioral therapy for preventing perinatal depression. Participants are assigned to psychoeducation alone or one of five specific CBT modules, such as behavioral activation or insomnia therapy, to identify effective skills and personalized treatment approaches. The study measures depression prevalence at one month postpartum using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale.
