DECIDE to Improve Maternal Mental Health Care Delivery
This study is testing a training program called DECIDE for MOM Provider Training. This training aims to help healthcare providers better support individuals with mental health disorders during pregnancy and after childbirth (perinatal mental health care). The training is an online course, about 2 hours long, that teaches providers how to have better conversations with patients about their treatment choices. The study wants to see if this training is acceptable, practical, and appropriate for providers. It also looks at their experience with the training. This study is for perinatal or mental health care providers who work within health systems, are between 18 and 64 years old, and can understand English. The study plans to enroll 35 participants. The current recruitment status is unclear.
- Study design
- This interventional study plans to enroll 35 participants. It is not specified if it is randomized or blinded.
- What's involved
- Participants will take an asynchronous online DECIDE for MOM provider training (approximately 2 hours). They will also complete assessments immediately after and 1 month after the training, and participate in focus groups 1 month after the training.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be assessed immediately after the training and 1 month after the training.

What this trial measures
- Acceptability, Feasibility, and Appropriateness Scale (AFAS)Immediately after and 1 month after the training
The Acceptability, Feasibility, and Appropriateness Scale (AFAS)42 developed for the assessment of implementation outcomes for training in EBPs will be used. The measure demonstrates a good fit to the hypothesized three-factor structures (RMSEA = .058, CFI = .990, TLI = .987) and acceptable internal consistency (α = .86 to α = .91).42 The AFAS uses a 5-point Likert scale with 1 indicating "not at all" and 5 indicating "extremely." A few examples of the times are: "To what extent are you satisfied with the training you received and the practices covered?", "How comfortable are you with the practices contained within the training?", "How well do the information and practices fit with your overall approach to service delivery and the setting in which you provide care?" AFAS has demonstrated sensitivity to assessing workshop-specific perceptions about training acceptability and feasibility.42
- Training ExperienceImmediately after the training
We will ask a set of open-ended questions to obtain detailed information on user acceptability, appropriateness and feasibility. The example questions include: (1) Share your experience of taking the asynchronous online training regarding login, course navigation, module organization, and other aspects of accessing the training (2) Did the training change how participants interact with perinatal individuals with mental health disorders? What are the specific examples? (3) What are the best strategies to effectively implement the DECIDE for MOM provider training within your organization?
- Focus groups1 month after the training
We will conduct focus groups with training participants one month after the training to gain an in-depth understanding of participants' perceptions of acceptability, appropriateness, and usability of adapted DECIDE and thoughts about strategies to promote the high-quality implementation of the DECIDE training.
