Descrizione
Common mental disorders (CMD) of depression and anxiety are prevalent and largely untreated among Kenyan
pregnant and postpartum women living with HIV (PPWH). CMD lead to poor maternal and child health outcomes
and contribute to lack of HIV care engagement and virologic failure in PPWH. While efficacious treatments for
CMD exist, scaling treatment within routine health care in low- and middle-income (LMIC) settings will require
stakeholder engagement and both effectiveness and implementation data to inform scale up and sustainability.
Our team has integrated other efficacious interventions into antenatal (ANC) and HIV care in Kenya. We now
propose to integrate proven mental health services using a collaborative care model, combined with a low
intensity evidence-based intervention (problem solving therapy), while targeting known social determinants of
HIV-related health for PPWH (stigma and IPV). Building on the current multidisciplinary approach for HIV care
in Kenya, our proposed Collaborative Care Model (CCM) will utilize existing peer mentor mothers, non-specialist
behavioral care managers, and psychiatric nurses; and will incorporate a consultant psychiatrist into the
ANC/HIV care team. Guided by the EPIS (Exploration-Preparation-Implementation-Sustainment) framework, the
overall study goal is to integrate collaborative care for perinatal CMD within routine ANC/HIV services in
Kenya, assess the costs and cost-effectiveness of this approach, and work with policy and decision makers to
determine key considerations for scale-up. Specifically, in Aim 1, we will identify contextual barriers and
facilitators to refine an optimal integration model for delivering collaborative care model using multi-
method data collection (focus groups with providers, in-depth interviews with key informants, and a clinic
readiness checklist). A workshop with our Advisory Board comprising both county and national level stakeholders,
will allow us to translate findings into a locally relevant CCM. In Aim 2 we will test CCM

from this study will developing a scalable model adaptable to other LMIC settings, contributing to global HIV and
