rel="noopener">Get the app</a> </div> <p>Postpartum depression (PPD), is one of the most common complications of childbirth, and yet much remains unknown about this condition. Approximately one in seven women experience PPD and some of its most devastating consequences include maternal suicide, infanticide, and reduced maternal sensitivity leading to adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes for the child.</p> <p>This led UNC School of Medicine to create Mom Genes Fight PPD (formerly PPD ACT), an iOS app they used to recruit, consent, screen, and enable DNA collection from women with a lifetime history of PPD. Mom Genes Fight PPD was designed to understand why some women are afflicted with postpartum depression and others aren’t based on genetics.</p> <div class="quote"> <blockquote class="quote-body double-invert"> <p>“We were able to use ResearchKit to bring PPD research to a much larger population compared to traditional studies that require participants to visit specific research centers.”</p> <span class="quote-credit"><span role="text"><span aria-hidden="true">—</span><span class="visuallyhidden">Quote by </span>Samantha Meltzer-Brody, MD, MPH</span></span> </blockquote> </div> <p>Since its launch, the app has reached over 17,000 downloads enabling the team to tap into a huge participant population and collect approximately 4,000 genetic samples. The scale of the study also drove genome-wide association studies.</p> <p>Now, UNC researchers are able to accurately determine reliability of which childbirth preceded the worst episode, participant's age at the worst episode, and duration of the worst episode in a cohort larger than any studied previously. The scale of the study, and the number of participants recruited has the team at UNC hopeful that they are well on their way to understanding the genetic signature of postpartum mood disorders. This critical knowledge will improve detection, prevention, and treatment of postpartum depression.</p> </div> <div class="module-tiles"> <h3>Modules used:</h3> <ul class="tile-links ul-reset" role="list" aria-label="ResearchKit modules used for Mom Genes Fight PPD"> <li role="listitem"> <div class="module-tile" role="img" aria-label="ResearchKit Consent"> <span class="module-caption">ResearchKit</span> <span id="img-e35fc24b10" class="icon"></span> <span class="body-reduced">Consent</span> </div> </li> <li role="listitem"> <div class="module-tile" role="img" aria-label="ResearchKit Surveys"> <span class="module-caption">ResearchKit</span> <span id="img-f36337df01" class="icon"></span> <span class="body-reduced">Surveys</span> </div> </li> </ul> </div> <div class="ctas"> <p class="intro"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/https://www.momgenesfightppd.org/" class="icon-wrapper external" target="_blank" aria-describedby="new-window" rel="noopener nofollow"> <span class="icon-copy">Visit the Mom Genes Fight PPD website</span><span class="icon icon-after icon-external"></span> </a> </p> <p class="intro"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/https://www.nature.com/articles/s41398-018-0305-5" class="icon-wrapper external" target="_blank" aria-describedby="new-window" rel="noopener nofollow"> <span class="icon-copy">Read the publication</span><span class="icon icon-after icon-external"></span> </a> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> <div id="ck-case-study-modal" class="card card-modal visuallyhidden hidden-modal" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1" aria-labelledby="modal-headline-ck-case-study"> <section class="section"> <div class="section-case-study ck-case-study"> <div class="image-container double-invert"> <figure id="img-50273a2877-1040x540" class="image no-double-invert" aria-hidden="true" data-component-list="ProgressiveImageLoaderComponent" data-progressive-image></figure> <div class="section-content"> <h2 id="modal-headline-ck-case-study" class="headline-elevated large-9 medium-12 large-offset-1 medium-offset-0" style="color: #ffffff">Johns Hopkins reinvents cardiac patient care with Corrie Health.</h2> </div> </div> <div class="section-content case-study-content"> <div class="large-9 medium-12 large-offset-1 medium-offset-0"> <div class="large-12 medium-11 small-12 article"> <div class="case-study-content-app"> <figure id="img-b50c2a6ea7-82x82" class="app-icon" aria-hidden="true" data-component-list="ProgressiveImageLoaderComponent" data-progressive-image></figure> <h3 class="intro">Corrie Health</h3> <p class="body-tight">An app designed to help patients recover from a heart attack.</p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/https://apps.apple.com/us/app/corrie-health/id1212463532" class="button button-pill" target="_blank" aria-describedby="new-window" rel="noopener">Get the app</a> </div> <p>The weeks following a heart attack, or myocardial infarction, are crucial to recovery. In fact, unplanned readmissions after hospitalization for acute myocardial infarction are among the leading causes of preventable morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs.</p> <p>The Corrie Health program, centered around an app created by physicians at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, is giving patients greater control over their recovery and reducing readmission rates. The app, which leverages ResearchKit, CareKit, and Apple Watch, allows for remote monitoring and continuous data collection so providers can have better insight into their patients’ health status and recovery progress.</p> <p>This mobile health solution aims to reinvent the cardiac patient’s experience by: helping them improve skills for diet, exercise, and medication habits, connecting them to resources helpful to recovery, introducing them to mindfulness techniques for improving awareness and emotional strength, and recording data on steps, heart rate, and blood pressure. Data are captured with the help of an Apple Watch and Bluetooth blood pressure cuff that writes data directly to the Health app and is shared via HealthKit to the Corrie Health app.</p> </div> <div class="module-tiles"> <h3>Modules used:</h3> <ul class="tile-links ul-reset" role="list" aria-label="ResearchKit modules used for Corrie Health"> <li role="listitem"> <div class="module-tile" role="img" aria-label="ResearchKit Consent"> <span class="module-caption">ResearchKit</span> <span id="img-e35fc24b10" class="icon"></span> <span class="body-reduced">Consent</span> </div> </li> <li role="listitem"> <div class="module-tile" role="img" aria-label="ResearchKit Surveys"> <span class="module-caption">ResearchKit</span> <span id="img-f36337df01" class="icon"></span> <span class="body-reduced">Surveys</span> </div> </li> <li role="listitem"> <div class="module-tile" role="img" aria-label="CareKit Tasks"> <span class="module-caption">CareKit</span> <span id="img-06f8ae531c" class="icon"></span> <span class="body-reduced">Tasks</span> </div> </li> <li role="listitem"> <div class="module-tile" role="img" aria-label="CareKit Contacts"> <span class="module-caption">CareKit</span> <span id="img-9644725d1f" class="icon"></span> <span class="body-reduced">Contacts</span> </div> </li> <li role="listitem"> <div class="module-tile" role="img" aria-label="CareKit Care Plan Store"> <span class="module-caption">CareKit</span> <span id="img-8a6bc506a7" class="icon"></span> <span class="body-reduced">Care Plan Store</span> </div> </li> </ul> </div> <div class="ctas"> <p class="intro"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1161/CIRCOUTCOMES.119.005509" class="icon-wrapper external" target="_blank" aria-describedby="new-window" rel="noopener nofollow"> <span class="icon-copy">Read the publication</span><span class="icon icon-after icon-external"></span> </a> </p> <p class="intro"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/https://corriehealth.com/" class="icon-wrapper external" target="_blank" aria-describedby="new-window" rel="noopener nofollow"> <span class="icon-copy">Visit the Corrie Health app website</span><span class="icon icon-after icon-external"></span> </a> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> </div> </main> <footer id="footer" class="footer" role="contentinfo" aria-labelledby="footer-label"> <div class="footer-content"> <h2 class="footer-label" id="footer-label" aria-hidden="true">ResearchKit & CareKit Footer</h2> <nav class="footer-breadcrumbs" aria-label="breadcrumb" role="navigation"> <div class="footer-breadcrumbs-path"> <ol class="footer-breadcrumbs-list"> <li class="footer-breadcrumbs-item"> <span aria-hidden="true" class="footer-breadcrumbs-home-icon"></span> ResearchKit & CareKit </li> </ol> </div> </nav> <div class="footer-mini"> <div class="footer-mini-legal top"> <div class="footer-mini-legal-links"> <span class="contact-us">Contact us:</span> <nav class="footer-mini-legal-nav" role="navigation" aria-label="contact information"> <ol role="list"> <li role="listitem" class="breadcrumb-list-item"><a class="footer-mini-legal-link" aria-label="Contact the ResearchKit team" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/mailto:researchkit@apple.com">ResearchKit team</a></li> <li role="listitem" class="breadcrumb-list-item"><a class="footer-mini-legal-link" aria-label="Contact the CareKit team" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/mailto:carekit@apple.com">CareKit team</a></li> <li role="listitem" class="breadcrumb-list-item"><a class="footer-mini-legal-link" aria-label="Contact the Investigator Support Program team" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/mailto:research_proposals@apple.com">Investigator Support Program</a></li> </ol> </nav> </div> </div> <div class="footer-mini-legal bottom"> <div class="footer-mini-legal-links"> <a class="footer-mini-legal-link" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230315164958/https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/en-ww/" target="_blank">Privacy Policy</a> <a class="footer-mini-legal-link" href="/web/20230315164958/https://www.researchandcare.org/legal/">Legal</a> </div> </div> <div class="footer-mini-locale"> <span class="footer-mini-locale-link">Copyright © 2022 Apple Inc.
