Supporting mental well-being of healthcare workers using a mobile app

This study aimed to assess the feasibility of a self-monitoring mobile app called MYARKEO, to improve mental well-being among healthcare workers and healthcare trainees in the United Kingdom. The study evaluated recruitment and retention rates, variability of key outcomes to inform a future randomised controlled trial (RCT), intervention engagement, barriers and facilitators to engagement, and potential refinements to the mobile app. A mixed-method feasibility RCT was conducted with two groups: an intervention group using MYARKEO to monitor mental well-being over 6 weeks, and a non-intervention control group. The first dataset includes quantitative questionnaire data collected at baseline and post-intervention including the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale (WEMWBS), the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21), and the mHealth App Usability Questionnaire (MAUQ). The second dataset includes frequency data for app usage.
