简要总结
The purpose of this proposal is to deploy digital health interventions to bring timely, easily accessible resources and care to address the mental health and well-being needs of HCWs with direct patient care that are experiencing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic, financial, and social sequelae at present and presumably for years to come. This proposal will evaluate the effectiveness of an enhanced digital mental health care delivery system (Cobalt), any differential effect by race and gender and, through qualitative interviews, how those interventions are perceived.

The purpose of this proposal is to deploy digital health interventions to bring timely, easily accessible resources and care to address the mental health and well-being needs of HCWs with direct patient care that are experiencing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic, financial, and social sequelae at present and presumably for years to come. This proposal will evaluate the effectiveness of an enhanced digital mental health care delivery system (Cobalt), any differential effect by race and gender and, through qualitative interviews, how those interventions are perceived. No Intervention: Usual Care, Participants will complete baseline surveys at enrollment and then complete subsequent surveys (depression, anxiety, well-being, satisfaction with access to care, work productivity, hours of direct patient care, percent of time providing care for patients with COVID-19) at enrollment; 0 months, 6 months, and 9 months. Behavioral: Cobalt +: Participants will complete baseline surveys at enrollment and then complete subsequent surveys (depression, anxiety, well-being, satisfaction with access to care, work productivity) at enrollment; 0 months and then again at 6 months. The primary endpoint is assessed at 6 months. A secondary endpoint of persistence of effect is measured 3 months later-9 months post initiation. The intervention group receives usual Cobalt plus: 1) monthly automated text messaging reminders and links to Cobalt resources 2) intermittent mental health assessments which triage individuals to an appointment based on their results.

结局指标
主要结局
Depressive Symptom Score Change
时间窗: 6 months and baseline measurements
Patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) (Kroenke, Spitzer, \& Williams, 2001) is a multipurpose instrument for screening, diagnosing, monitoring and measuring the severity of depression. The PHQ-9 incorporates DSM-IV depression diagnostic criteria with other leading major depressive symptoms into a brief self-report tool. PHQ-9 is brief and useful in clinical practice. The PHQ-9 is completed by the patient in minutes and is rapidly scored by the clinician. The PHQ-9 is a freely available mood-rating questionnaire consisting of nine questions mirroring DSM-IV depression diagnostic criteria. The PHQ-9 has shown diagnostic validity in a study of 3,000 adult patients. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 3, giving a maximum score of 24. Cut-off scores are used to label depression severity as: 0 to 4, minimal depression; 5 to 9, mild depression; 10 to 14, moderate depression; 15 to 19, moderately severe depression; 20 to 24, severe depression.
Anxiety Symptoms Score Change
时间窗: 6 months and baseline measurements
GAD-7 is a 7-item anxiety scale. It has good reliability, as well as criterion, construct, factorial, and procedural validity. Each item is rated according to the frequency of the described problem. The responses are scored as follows: 0 = not at all, 1 = several days, 2 = more than half the days, 3 = nearly every day with a maximum score of 21 Scores are interpreted as 5 to 9, mild anxiety; 10 to 14, moderate anxiety; and 15 and above, severe anxiety. The GAD-7 showed good reliability and criterion, construct, factorial, and procedural validity in a study carried out in 15 primary care clinics. The GAD-7 is a valid and efficient tool for screening for GAD and assessing its severity in clinical practice and research.
