Résumé
Background: Smartphone-based monitoring constitutes a cost-effective instrument to assess and predict affective symptom trajectories. Large-scale transdiagnostic studies utilizing this methodology are yet lacking in psychiatric research. Thus, we introduce the Remote Monitoring Application in Psychiatry (ReMAP) and evaluate its feasibility and adherence in a large transdiagnostic sample. Methods: The ReMAP app was distributed among n = 997 healthy control participants and psychiatric patients, including affective, anxiety, and psychotic disorders. Passive sensor data (acceleration, geolocation, walking distance, steps), optional standardized self-reports on mood and sleep, and voice samples were assessed. Feasibility and adherence were evaluated based on frequency of transferred data, and participation duration. Preliminary results are presented while data collection is ongoing. Results: Retention rates of 90.25% for the minimum study duration of two weeks and 33.09% for one year were achieved (median participation 135 days, IQR=111). Participants transferred an average of 51.83 passive events per day. An average of 34.59 self-report events were transferred per user, with a considerable range across participants (0–552 events). Clinical and non-clinical subgroups did not differ in participation duration or rate of data transfer. The mean rate of days with passive data was higher and less heterogeneous in iOS (91.85%, SD=21.25) as compared to Android users (63.04%, SD=35.09). Limitations: Subjective user experience was not assessed limiting conclusions about app acceptance. Conclusions: ReMAP is a technically feasible tool to assess affective symptoms with high temporal resolution in large-scale transdiagnostic samples with good adherence. Future studies should account for differences between operating systems.
