Early or partial results. Treat as a signal, not a conclusion.
This is a feasibility and acceptability study of M.Bapp, a newly app-based adaptation of the evidence-based Mothers & Babies cognitive behavioral therapy program for postpartum depression prevention. Recruitment has been completed in 90 participants, but no outcomes or results are reported in this registry record. Clinical utility cannot be assessed until results are published.
Interventional, Randomized, Single Group, Quadruple masking, Prevention purpose. Postpartum Depression, Postpartum Anxiety, Stress; Female; age from 18 Years; to 60 Years. Intervention: M.Bapp. Compared with: App-based digital parenting education — Active Comparator. n = 90. 1 site: United States.

No information on follow-up completion, adverse events, or reasons for recruitment completion.
Results are needed to determine whether the app-based adaptation is feasible and acceptable for delivery and whether preliminary efficacy signals emerge to justify a larger trial. Clinicians should await publication of results before considering adoption.

Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
What is missing. This record has no key findings. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06365645). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Women and Infants Hospital of Rhode Island. Recruitment status: COMPLETED. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 90 participants (ACTUAL). Conditions: Postpartum Depression, Postpartum Anxiety, Stress. Interventions: BEHAVIORAL: M.Bapp; BEHAVIORAL: App-based parenting education. Primary outcome measures: Feasibility , Randomization and six months postpartum; Acceptability , Six months postpartum. Brief summary: Postpartum depression (PPD) affects up 10-15% of mothers overall, but the rate of PPD can be as high as 25% among mothers with personal or obstetric risk factors. The Mothers \& Babies Program (MB) is a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)-based program that has been shown to prevent PPD among high-risk mothers without a prior history of depression. MB has been so consistently effective that the United States Preventive Services Task Force recommends this program be given to high-risk pregnant patients. Originally designed to be given in-person and via groups, MB has been adapted to be given in person one-on-one in clinic or at home and via text message. However, MB has yet to be adapted to a smartphone application (app). Via evidence-based qualitative research and end-user centered design, MB has been adapted to a novel app, M.Bapp. This study aims to examine the feasibility and acceptability of M.Bapp as a study intervention for perinatal patients as well as provide preliminary estimates of effect for the intervention.
