Brief summary
The MoodRing intervention is a mobile application for adolescents, parents, and an accompanying web-based clinician portal which enables adolescents to monitor their mood through the use of passively collected smartphone data. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate whether MoodRing as compared to usual care improves the quality of depression management.
Detailed description
This is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of MoodRing as compared to usual care for adolescents who have a prior diagnosis of depression. Adolescents with depressive symptoms, their parents, and their mental healthcare providers (if interested) will participate in a 6 month study. Adolescents age 12-18 and their parent will be consented for the study and be sent an online survey to obtain baseline measures. Those who complete the baseline measures will then be randomized to receive the MoodRing intervention or treatment as usual. Adolescents and parents will be asked to complete data collection at 3 months and 6 month time points post-randomization by online survey. Additionally, data will be collected for 3 and 6 month timepoints via the adolescent's electronic health record data. At 6 months, online surveys will be sent and an invitation to interview for patients' mental healthcare providers who consent to participate in the study. Adolescent-parent dyads will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio (using randomized block sizes) to either 1) MoodRing or 2) usual care. 100 adolescent-parent dyads (200 total individuals) will be randomized to MoodRing and 100 adolescent-parent dyads (200 total individuals) will be randomized to usual care. We expect 50 clinicians will participate. In both arms, passively collected data will be obtained from adolescent smartphones as well as weekly mood surveys and monthly sleep surveys. In the 1) MoodRing arm adolescents will download the MoodRing-adolescent app, parents will download the MoodRing-parent app, and healthcare providers if interested will have access to a clinician dashboard. The randomization tables will be generated by the study statistician. The investigators hypothesize that adolescents who receive MoodRing as compared to usual care will have: H1: Improved self-management of depression as measured by change of baseline for the average score on the Partners in Health Scale EH2: The investigators will also explore whether MoodRing as compared to usual care will result in improved quality of depression management as measured by frequency of symptom reassessment, medication adherence, and therapy adherence, less healthcare utilization, decreased depression symptoms, improved sleep quality, and increased application of self-management activities through increased self-efficacy, utilization of self-management skills and knowledge and social support. H3: The investigators anticipate healthcare providers, adolescents, and parents will report satisfaction with use of MoodRing. \* After date September 2022, we decided to make a change to the protocol and primary outcome. Due to recruitment challenges from mental health clinicians due to their clinical workload, we made a change to recruit adolescents directly including using social media. This introduced more heterogeneity to access to mental health care as well as less access to electronic health records systems that were external to our site which made it less likely to be able to measure quality of depression management. For this reason, the goal to recruit healthcare providers was discontinued. And the primary outcome was changed to self-management, changing our hypothesis to: We hypothesized that MoodRing will help adolescents better self-manage their depression. Secondary outcome measures were changed from change in symptoms to just that symptom total at 3 months and 6 months for better clinical interpretability.
Interventions
DEVICEMoodRing App
Adolescents and parents in the MR arm will receive instructions to download the MR app and AWARE app, customize the app, utilize an app-based self-guided onboarding, and review questions with the research team. The MR app provides the adolescent and their parent a notification to view a weekly report predicting their mood score (i.e. depression severity level similar to the Patient health questionnaire-9). The MR app will provide a library of coping strategies for adolescents and opportunities to self-track their mood. Clinicians in the MR Arm will get access to a MR portal online. They will be able to view patients they are a provider for. The clinician will receive in-person and/or video-based training to use the portal.
OTHERUsual Care
Adolescents and parents in the usual care arm will receive instructions to download the AWARE app. This app will only track data and will not be interactive. Otherwise they will receive care as per routine by their healthcare provider team.

Participant flow
Recruitment details
Recruitment sources: 81.4% from social media advertisement (591/726), 9.5% completing an electronic interest form in clinic at UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh Center for Adolescent and Young Adult Health (69/726), and from 9% completing the University of Pittsburgh online interest form (Pitt+Me) (66/726). Out of these, 12.5% (91/726) were able to be reached to complete screening. Prior to the study a plan was made to enroll healthcare providers. One provider was approached did not enroll.
Pre-assignment details
Both the adolescent and the parent were required to complete the baseline survey to enter the study. Out of 73 adolescent and parent dyads consented for the study, 68 (93.1%) of adolescents completed the baseline survey while, despite multiple contacts, only 63 (86.3%) of parents completed the baseline. Therefore 63 adolescent parent dyads were able to start the study and were randomized.
Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |
|---|---|
| MoodRing - Adolescents Adolescent participants in this arm will download two mobile applications - a data collection non-interactive app to collect passive sensing data (AWARE) and the MoodRing (MR) mobile application with which they can visualize their data about their mood, sleep, activity, enter their own mood score, and access psychoeducational resources including links to a research-based website, SOVA.
MoodRing App: Adolescents in the MR arm will receive instructions to download the MR app and AWARE app, customize the app, utilize an app-based self-guided onboarding, and review questions with the research team. The MR app provides the adolescent a notification to view a weekly report predicting their mood score (i.e. depression severity level similar to the Patient health questionnaire-9). The MR app will provide a library of coping strategies for adolescents and opportunities to self-track their mood. | 32 |
| MoodRing - Parents Parents will download a parent MoodRing application which provides them with parenting resources and articles and a weekly report of their adolescents' mood as predicted by passive sensing. The MR app provides the parent a notification to view a weekly report predicting their mood score (i.e. depression severity level similar to the Patient health questionnaire-9). | 32 |
| Usual Care - Adolescents Participants in this arm will receive no intervention and access treatment as usual per their mental health services provider. A mobile application (AWARE) which is not interactive and is only for purposes of data collection will be downloaded on the adolescents' smartphone.
Usual Care: Adolescents in the usual care arm will receive instructions to download the AWARE app. This app will only track data and will not be interactive. Otherwise they will receive care as per routine by their healthcare provider team. | 31 |
