About this trial
This SBIR Phase II proposal will fully develop and test the acceptability, feasibility, and efficacy of a novel measurement and feedback system, SMART-Wrap, tailored to Wraparound service model (WSM) for youth with serious emotional disorders (SED). SMART-Wrap will be a feasible, cost-efficient, and scalable software system to meet the pressing public health need for measurement-based care in care coordination for youth behavioral health. Results from pilot testing will determine SMART-Wrap's feasibility, usability, and efficacy in improving care quality and family outcomes, in addition to preparing the product for commercialization.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
Short Message Service (SMS) Outreach - Caregiver
Caregiver Short Message Service (SMS) outreach includes 27 self-report Likert items (4 pt scale- 0= Not at all to 3= Absolutely) capturing feedback on six different themes (Therapeutic Alliance, Wraparound Fidelity, Satisfaction with Care, Making Progress, Caregiver and Family Outcomes, and Youth Outcomes). Caregivers will be asked to complete 4 items from the bank of 27, each week over the course of 16 weeks. Items will be resampled across the 4-month interval with 64 items being delivered. A mean score will be computed. SMS score means will range from 0 to 3 and lower scores indicate increased Wraparound needs.
Time frame
Weekly, ongoing for 4 months2
Short Message Service (SMS) Open Rate (SMARTWrap open rate) - Caregiver
Short Message Service (SMS) open rate will be calculated from the 16 SMS's that are delivered. Rates will be computed as percentage opened (0-100%) and higher rates indicated more consistent system usage.
Time frame
ongoing, over a 4-month period3
Item Completion Rate (SMARTWrap item completion rate) - Caregiver
Item completion rate will be calculated from the 64 items that are delivered. Rates will be computed as percentages (0-100%) and higher rates indicated more consistent item completion.
Time frame
ongoing, over a 4-month period4
Time to Complete (SMARTWrap time) - Caregiver
Time to complete the 16 SMS delivered surveys will be calculated and reported as a mean in seconds ranging from 0 to 600, with higher scores showing longer completion times.
