BACKGROUND Mental health disorders affect one in ten people globally, of which around 300 million are affected by depression. At least half of affected people remain untreated. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment but access to specialized providers, habitually challenging, has worsened with COVID-19. Internet-based CBT (iCBT) is effective and a feasible strategy to increase access to treatment for people with depression. Mental health apps may further assist in facilitating self-management for people affected by depression but accessing the right app might be cumbersome given the large number and wide variety of apps offered by public app marketplaces. OBJECTIVE To systematically assess features, functionality, data security and congruence with evidence of self-guided CBT-based apps available in major app stores, suitable for users suffering from depression. METHODS A systematic assessment of self-guided CBT-based apps available in Google Play and Apple’s App Store was conducted. Apps launched or updated since August 2018 were identified through a systematic search in 42matters using CBT-related terms. Apps meeting inclusion criteria were downloaded and assessed using a Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro (Android 9) and iPhone 7 (iOS 13.3.1). Apps were appraised using a 182-question checklist developed by the research team, comprising apps’ general characteristics, CBT-related features, including six evidence-based CBT techniques as informed by a CBT manual, CBT competences framework and a literature review of iCBT clinical trial protocols (psychoeducation, behavioral activation, cognitive restructuring, problem solving, relaxation, and exposure for comorbid anxiety), and technical aspects and quality assurance. Results were reported as a narrative review, using descriptive statistics. RESULTS The initial search yielded 3006 apps, of which 98 apps met inclusion criteria and were systematically assessed. There were 20 wellbeing apps, 65 mental health apps and 13 depression apps. Twenty-eight apps offered at least four evidence-based CBT techniques, particularly depression apps. Cognitive restructuring was the most common technique, offered by 77/98 apps. Only a third of apps offered suicide- risk management resources while less than 20% of apps offered COVID-19-related information. Most apps included a privacy policy, but only a third of apps presented it before account creation. Eighty percent of privacy policies stated sharing data with third party service providers. Half of app development teams included academic institutions or healthcare providers. CONCLUSIONS Only few self-guided CBT-based apps offer comprehensive CBT programs or suicide risk management resources. Sharing of users’ data is widespread, highlighting shortcomings in the health app market governance. To fulfill their potential, self-guided CBT-based apps should follow evidence-based clinical guidelines, be patient-centered and enhance users’ data security. CLINICALTRIAL NA

Abstract Nursing home (NH) residents face many risk factors for late life suicide, and transitions into and out of NHs represent risk periods for suicide. Based on data from the 2019 National Nursing Home Social Services Directors survey (n = 924), this presentation describes NH social services directors (SSDs) roles in managing suicide risk and factors that influence self-efficacy in this area. Nearly one-fifth (19.7%) of SSDs lack of self-efficacy in suicide risk management, reporting needing significant preparation time or being not able to train others on this topic. Results of ordinal logistic regression indicate that SSDs who consider insufficient social services staffing as a minor barrier (comparing with a major barrier) to psychosocial care, those who report greater involvement in safety planning for suicide risk, and those with Master’s degree, are more likely to perceive greater self-efficacy in suicide risk management. Implications for training and staffing will be discussed.
