«Hilfe aus dem App-Store?»: Eine systematische Übersichtsarbeit und Evaluation von Apps zur Anwendung bei Depressionen
Abstract
Hintergrund: In Deutschland sind etwa 4,9 Millionen Menschen an Depressionen erkrankt. Depressionen sind für die Betroffenen und die Gesellschaft mit enormen Belastungen verbunden. Gesundheits-Apps haben hier das Potenzial, die Versorgungslage zu verbessern. Das Ziel dieser systematischen Übersichtsarbeit ist es, die Qualität, Inhalte und Praxisrelevanz von deutschsprachigen Apps für die Anwendung bei Depressionen zu untersuchen. Methode: Die deutschen Google-Play- und iTunes-Stores wurden systematisch nach Apps durchsucht, die explizit mit der Thematik «Depression/Depressivität» warben. Die so ermittelten Apps wurden mithilfe einer Skala zur Einschätzung der Qualität (Mobile Application Rating Scale) von 2 unabhängigen Gutachtern bewertet. Apps mit überdurchschnittlichem Rating wurden von 2 praktisch tätigen Verhaltenstherapeuten im Hinblick auf ihren Nutzen für die klinische Praxis beurteilt. Ergebnisse: Von 1156 identifizierten Apps wurden 38 eingeschlossen. Inhaltlich reichten diese von Informations- bis zu Interventions-Apps. Die Apps wiesen eine mittlere Gesamtqualität auf (M = 3,01; Standardabweichung = 0,56). Vier Apps zeigten überdurchschnittliche Werte. Sie wurden durch 2 Psychotherapeuten getestet und als bedingt empfehlenswert für die klinische Praxis beurteilt. Zu keiner der eingeschlossenen Apps konnte eine Wirksamkeitsstudie gefunden werden. Schlussfolgerungen: Deutschsprachige Depressions-Apps weisen qualitative Mängel auf. Zusätzlich fehlt es an klinischen Studien zum Nutzen und zu Risiken, weshalb der Einsatz in der klinischen Praxis nur bedingt empfohlen werden kann. Ein Gütesiegel für qualitativ hochwertige und praxisrelevante Gesundheits-Apps könnte Nutzer vor Fehlinformationen und Missbrauch schützen und Leistungserbringern den Einsatz digitaler Medien substanziell erleichtern.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
