“…Multiple recent reviews for delivering mental health care via digital technologies have shown that these are safe, feasible and effective among groups of people with mental health disorders [7][8][9][10][11][12][13]. Furthermore, digital technologies have the potential to improve mental health care systems, increase system capacity and transparency [14], enable data collection for monitoring and measure health outcomes, facilitate data sharing among health services [15,16], enhance access in rural and remote areas [17][18][19][20], and improve rationing of costs and human resources [14,16]. The integration and reimbursement of digital technology tools at different levels of the health systems depends on the performance and capacity to meet health system objectives such as quality, accessibility, efficiency and equity [21].…”

Introduction Digital technology has the potential to improve health outcomes and health system performance in fragmented and under-funded mental health systems. Despite this potential, the integration of digital technology tools into mental health systems has been relatively poor. This is a protocol for a synthesis of qualitative evidence that will aim to determine the barriers and facilitators to integrating digital technologies in mental health systems and classify them in contextual domains at individual, organisational and system levels. Methods and analysis The methodological framework for systematic review of qualitative evidence described in Lockwood et al. will be applied to this review. A draft search strategy was developed in collaboration with an experienced senior health research librarian. A systematic search of Medline, Embase, Scopus, PsycInfo, Web of Science and Google Scholar, as well as hand searching of reference lists and reviews will identify relevant studies for inclusion. Study selection will be carried out independently by two authors, with discrepancies resolved by consensus. The quality of selected studies will be assessed using JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative Research. Data will be charted using JBI QUARI Data Extraction Tool for Qualitative Research. Findings will be defined and classified both deductively in a priori conceptual framework and inductively by a thematic analysis. Results will be reported based on the Enhancing transparency in reporting the synthesis of qualitative research. The level of confidence of the findings will be assessed using GRADE-CERQual. Ethics and dissemination This study does not require ethics approval. The systematic review will inform policy and practices around improving the integration of digital technologies into mental health care systems.

“…e‐Mental health is broadly defined as “mental health services and information delivered or enhanced through the internet and related technologies. It includes all technology‐enabled therapies, including internet‐based programs, mobile phone applications, telehealth, and informational websites” (Stone & Waldron, , p. 475). For the purposes of this article, we have used the term “program” broadly to include any technology‐enabled intervention, service, or tool designed to prevent or treat anxiety and/or depression.…”

The aim of this review was to scope the growth and development of implementation research of e‐mental healthcare programs for anxiety and depression, the research and evaluation tools used, and the specific implementation processes and outcomes examined. A search of four electronic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, and CINAHL) was conducted from January 2000 to January 2019. Of 33 studies identified, most (n = 28) were published in the last five years. Only 10 used an implementation framework to guide implementation or evaluation. Most studies reported on acceptability (n = 28), appropriateness (n = 23), and feasibility (n = 17). Less commonly reported implementation outcomes were fidelity (n = 10) and adoption (n = 7); with penetration (n = 4), sustainability (n = 3), and implementation cost (n = 2) being studied rarely. Of the 21 studies that used surveys to study implementation outcomes, less than half used a previously published survey (n = 9). More rigorous implementation studies, underpinned by strong theory and real‐world understanding, are urgently needed.
