{"title":"Improving Social Media-Based Support Groups for the Rare Disease Community: Interview Study With Patients and Parents of Children with Rare and Undiagnosed Diseases.","authors":"Tom A Doyle, Samantha L Vershaw, Erin Conboy, Colin M E Halverson","doi":"10.2196/57833","DOIUrl":"10.2196/57833","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Background: </strong>The rarity that is inherent in rare disease (RD) often means that patients and parents of children with RDs feel uniquely isolated and therefore are unprepared or unsupported in their care. To overcome this isolation, many within the RD community turn to the internet, and social media groups in particular, to gather useful information about their RDs. While previous research has shown that social media support groups are helpful for those affected by RDs, it is unclear what these groups are particularly useful or helpful for patients and parents of children with RDs.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>This study aimed to identify what specific features of disease-related support groups (DRSGs) the RD community finds particularly useful or supportive and provide a set of recommendations to improve social media-based RD support groups based on this information.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Semistructured qualitative interviews were performed with patients and parents of patients with RDs. Interview participants had to be at least 18 years of age at the time of the interview, be seen by a genetics specialist at a partner health care institution and be proficient in the English language. Social media use was not a prerequisite for participation, so interview participants ranged from extensive users of social media to those who chose to remain off all social media. All interviews were conducted by phone, recorded, and then transcribed. Interview transcripts were then coded using the 6 steps outlined by Braun and Clarke. Three researchers (TAD, SLV, and CMEH) performed initial coding. After this, the study team conducted a review of themes and all members of the team agreed upon a final analysis and presentation of data.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>We conducted 31 interviews (mean age 40, SD 10.04 years; n=27, 87% were women; n=30, 97% were non-Hispanic White). Thematic analysis revealed that social media DRSG users identified the informational usefulness of these groups as being related to the gathering and sharing of specific information about an RD, clarification about the importance and meaning of certain symptoms, and obtaining insight into an RD's progression and prognosis. Participants also identified that DRSGs were useful sources of practical information, such as tips and tricks about managing RD-related issues and concerns. In addition, participants found DRSGs to be a useful space for sharing their disease-related stories but also highlighted a feeling of exhaustion from overexposure and overuse of DRSGs.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>This study identifies the usefulness of DRSGs for the RD community and provides a set of recommendations to improve future instances of DRSGs. These recommendations can be used to create DRSGs that are less prone to splintering into other DRSGs, thus minimizing the risk of having important RD-related information unhelpfully dispersed amongst a multitude of support gro","PeriodicalId":36351,"journal":{"name":"JMIR Human Factors","volume":"11 ","pages":"e57833"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142923657","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mothers and Babies (MB) is a cognitive behavioral therapy-based program that prevents up to 50% of de novo PPD when provided in person to low-income Spanish- and English-speaking people who are pregnant without depression. MB is limited by the need for trained personnel to support it. Transforming MB into a smartphone app may mitigate this key barrier.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objective: &lt;/strong&gt;We aimed to use qualitative data from target end users to create and optimize MBapp, a novel app centered on the MB program.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Draft wireframes of MBapp were created in English and Spanish with cognitive behavioral therapy-based modules adapted from MB. These wireframes included several features shown previously to sustain app engagement: (1) push notifications delivered at participant-preferred times; (2) text-, graphic-, and video-based content; and (3) gamification with digital rewards for app engagement. English- or Spanish-speaking individuals with public health insurance who were between 32 weeks gestation and 6 months post partum and owned smartphones were eligible to consent for individual in-depth interviews. Individuals with prior or current depression were excluded. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using deductive and inductive codes to characterize opinions about MBapp and perceptions of challenges and facilitators of use of MBapp or other perinatal or mental health apps. End user feedback led to major modifications to the wireframes. Each of these changes was categorized according to the FRAME (Framework for Modification and Adaptation), an established method of systematically reporting adaptations and modifications to evidence-based interventions via end user feedback.
