Curio Digital Therapy for the Treatment of Post-partum Depression

Supporting Maternal Mental Health and Emotional Regulation (SuMMER): Assessment of the Clinical Effectiveness of a Mobile Application for Patients With Postpartum Depression

Primary Objective: Evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the MamaLift Plus app compared to control (digital sham plus treatment as usual) for the management of PPD in the observed population for a period of 9 calendar weeks. It is hypothesized that women who use the MamaLift Plus APP will experience less severe symptoms of depression in post-partum period than comparable women who do not and receive their usual care from health providers.

Women between 18 and 50 years of age who have had a live birth within 3 months prior to study start date and have a diagnosis of mild to moderate PPD. A total of 200 women will be recruited to volunteer in the study with 166 assigned to the intervention arm and 37 assigned to the control group.
