“…Many of these interventions were web-based and involved education, developing coping skills, and providing social support. For example, two online education interventions focused on developing parenting skills for parents with SMI (Jones et al, 2014; Kaplan et al, 2014), while four online interventions included a peer component such as peer-to-peer online social networking (Alvarez-Jimenez et al, 2013; Gleeson et al, 2014), peer support (Kaplan et al, 2011), or peer coaching (Simon et al, 2011). One study focused on promoting physical activity using wearable activity tracking devices linked to smartphones (Naslund et al, 2015).…”

Background Serious mental illness is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. Emerging mobile health (mHealth) and eHealth interventions may afford opportunities for reaching this at-risk group. Aim To review the evidence on using emerging mHealth and eHealth technologies among people with serious mental illness. Methods We searched MEDLINE, PsychINFO, CINAHL, Scopus, Cochrane Central, and Web of Science through July 2014. Only studies reporting outcomes for mHealth or eHealth interventions, defined as remotely delivered using mobile, online, or other devices, targeting people with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorder, were included. Results Forty-six studies spanning 12 countries were included. Interventions were grouped into four categories: 1) illness self-management and relapse prevention; 2) promoting adherence to medications and/or treatment; 3) psychoeducation, supporting recovery, and promoting health and wellness; and 4) symptom monitoring. The interventions were consistently found to be highly feasible and acceptable, though clinical outcomes were variable but offered insight regarding potential effectiveness. Conclusions Our findings confirm the feasibility and acceptability of emerging mHealth and eHealth interventions among people with serious mental illness; however, it is not possible to draw conclusions regarding effectiveness. Further rigorous investigation is warranted to establish effectiveness and cost benefit in this population.

“…Supported online psychological interventions can improve clinical outcomes in mothers with postnatal depression (Kaplan, Solomon, Salzer, & Brusilovskiy, 2014; O'Mahen et al., 2014) and parenting in parents with and without mental health problems (Love et al., 2016; Sanders, Baker, & Turner, 2012; Sanders, Dittman, Farruggia, & Keown, 2014). Additionally, three studies of online Triple P indicated child behaviour improvements (Love et al., 2016; Sanders et al., 2012; Sanders, Dittman et al., 2014).…”

BackgroundPeople with bipolar disorder (BD) experience additional parenting challenges associated with mood driven fluctuations in communication, impulse control and motivation. This paper describes a novel web‐based self‐management approach (Integrated Bipolar Parenting Intervention; IBPI) to support parents with BD.MethodParents with BD with children aged 3–10 years randomised to IBPI plus treatment as usual (TAU) or waitlist control (WL). IBPI offered 16 weeks access to interactive self‐management information concerning BD and parenting issues. Feasibility was through recruitment, retention and web usage. Clinical outcomes were assessed at baseline, 16, 24, 36 and 48 weeks. Trial Registration Number: ISRCTN75279027.ResultsNinety seven participants were recruited with 98% retention to end of intervention and 90% to final follow‐up (56%–94% data analysed of retained participants; higher rates for observer measures). 77% of IBPI participants accessed the website (53% accessed parenting modules). Child behaviour, parenting sense of competence and parenting stress improved significantly in IBPI compared to WL to end of intervention, sustained to 48 weeks. Impacts of IBPI on family functioning, parent mood and time to mood relapse were not significant.ConclusionsOnline self‐management support for parents with BD is feasible, with promising improvements in parenting and child behaviour outcomes. A definitive clinical and cost‐effectiveness trial is required to confirm and extend these findings.

“…These most often focus on psychoeducation to enhance children's knowledge about PMI and strengthening children's resilience, 13 or on educating parents about the impact of mental illness on families and improving their parenting skills. 5 While there is evidence that many of these interventions can be helpful ,2, 5, 13 they are usually aimed at parents or children, as opposed to whole families, and they don't directly address how family members talk with each other about PMI.…”

“…• A more negative and confrontational family environment and poorer parent-child relationships; [3][4][5][6] • The burden for children of having to care for an ill parent; 7,8 • Children's concerns about the wellbeing of their parent or about potential family breakdown; 9 and, • Children's lack of understanding of PMI and how it can affect their parent. This can include confusion, self-blame, and anxieties about their own mental health and the possibility of "catching" mental illness like a cold.…”
