Outline of Final Research Achievements

This randomised controlled trial sought to develop a more accessible, cost-effective and equally effective treatment for women with postnatal depression, who often have difficulty visiting clinics or complete series of face-to-face psychotherapy. The results include 1. development of the web application, 2. the feasibility of the intervention was established by the pilot study, 3. the randomised controlled trial started in two major hospitals. However, the recruitment of the participants has not been finished by the end of the grant. We would like to successfully conduct and end the trial by increasing the number of participating hospitals or improving the recruitment method.
