    Area of Science:

    • Digital Health
    • Public Health
    • Psychology

    Context:

    • Postpartum psychosocial burdens negatively affect parental well-being and parent-child relationships.
    • Preventive interventions struggle to reach families experiencing these burdens, known as the prevention dilemma.
    • Blended care, combining digital tools with professional support, offers a low-threshold approach for hard-to-reach populations.

    Purpose:

    • To examine the research process, including development, recruitment, and implementation of the I-PREGNO project.
    • To evaluate a blended care intervention promoting mental health and weight management in psychosocially burdened postpartum families.
    • To identify strengths and challenges in recruiting and implementing mHealth solutions for this demographic.

  • The I-PREGNO project developed a user-centered app in collaboration with professionals and families.
  • A cluster-randomized controlled trial evaluated the intervention, facing recruitment challenges characteristic of the prevention dilemma.
  • Successfully recruited families showed low dropout rates, high satisfaction with the app, but indicated needs for adherence strategies and multilingual content.

    • Impact:

    • The study highlights the critical role of healthcare professionals in accessing vulnerable postpartum families.
    • Findings underscore the need for better resource planning for training and support of healthcare professionals involved in digital health interventions.
    • I-PREGNO offers valuable lessons for designing future mHealth interventions to effectively support psychosocially burdened families and reduce healthcare system strain.
