Digital Interventions for Adults with Treatment-Resistant Depression: a Pilot Study

Abstract

The goal of this observational study is to learn about remote mental health monitoring technology for adults with treatment-resistant depression. The main question it aims to answer is: are digital mental health monitoring tools (an electronic data capture platform and wearable device (e.g., smartwatch or smart-ring)) feasible to implement alongside clinical treatment for depression? The secondary aim of this study is to inform preliminary clinical parameters for larger, definitive studies. Participants receiving neuropsychiatric treatment (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, intravenous ketamine, or electroconvulsive therapy) as part of their regular medical care for treatment-resistant depression in the Interventional Psychiatry Program will have their clinical assessment data entered into a digital platform and will wear an accessory-based wearable device for the duration of treatment.
