NCT ID NCT07300930
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a new text-message system called SMART-Wrap that helps care teams check in regularly with youth who have serious emotional disorders and their families. The system sends short surveys by text to see how things are going, and the care team can use that information to adjust support. The study will enroll 216 participants to see if the system is easy to use and helpful for improving care coordination.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a simple, low-cost way for care teams to track how youth and families are doing, potentially improving the quality of mental health services.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study focused on feasibility and usability, not on proving the system directly improves health outcomes. The results may not apply to all settings or populations.
