Background: As mental illness continues to affect 1 in 5 individuals, and the need for support has increased during the COVID-19 pandemic, the promise of digital mental health tools remains largely unrealized due to a lack of uptake by patients and providers. Currently, most efforts on supporting the uptake of digital mental health tools remain fragmented across organizations and geography. There is a critical need to synthesize these efforts in order to provide a coordinated strategy of supporting the adoption of digital mental health tools. Objective: The specific aim of this project is to develop a web-based resource document to support the engagement of mental health providers and patients in the use of digital mental health tools. Methods: The web-based resource was developed using a multimethod approach. A grey literature review was conducted in 2019 to identify relevant toolkits that are available in the public domain. This was supplemented with an environmental scan where individuals with expertise in the development, acquisition, implementation, and evaluation of digital mental health tools were invited to contribute additional tools or documents not identified in the grey literature search. An engagement workshop was held with stakeholders to explore how the resource document should be developed and delivered. These findings were collectively used to develop the final iteration of the resource document. Results: Based on a gray literature review and environmental scan with 27 experts, 25 resources were identified and included in the resource guide. These resources were developed for patients and providers by organizations from 5 countries. An engagement workshop was held with 14 stakeholders, and barriers related to cultural sensitivity, sustainability, and accessibility of the toolkit were identified. The final iteration of the resource document was developed by the research team using findings from the gray literature review, environmental scan, and engagement workshop. The contents of the 45-page resource guide are directed at mental health care providers, administrators, and patients (inclusive of families and caregivers). Conclusions: The use of a multimethod approach led to the development of a resource guide that builds on existing evidence on digital mental health tools and was co-designed with stakeholders and end-users. The resource guide is now publicly available online for free and is being promoted through digital health and mental health websites. Future work should explore how this document can be integrated into clinical care delivery and pathways.

制定资源指南以支持心理健康提供者和患者使用数字健康工具的参与：多方法研究

背景：由于精神疾病继续影响五分之一的人，并且在COVID-19大流行期间对支持的需求增加，由于患者和医疗服务提供者的缺乏，数字心理健康工具的前景仍未实现。当前，大多数支持数字心理健康工具普及的工作仍然分散在组织和地域之间。迫切需要综合这些努力，以提供支持采用数字心理健康工具的协调策略。目标：该项目的具体目的是开发一个基于Web的资源文档，以支持精神卫生提供者和患者参与使用数字精神卫生工具。方法：使用多种方法开发基于Web的资源。2019年进行了灰色文献审查，以识别公共领域中可用的相关工具包。此外，还进行了环境扫描，邀请了在数字心理健康工具的开发，获取，实施和评估方面具有专业知识的个人提供其他在灰色文献搜索中未发现的工具或文件。与利益攸关方举行了一次参与讲习班，探讨应如何开发和交付资源文件。这些发现被共同用于开发资源文档的最终版本。结果：基于灰色文献回顾和27位专家的环境扫描，确定了25种资源并将其包括在资源指南中。这些资源是由来自5个国家的组织为患者和提供者开发的。与14个利益相关者举行了一次参与讲习班，并确定了与文化敏感性，可持续性和工具包可及性相关的障碍。研究团队使用灰色文献综述，环境扫描和参与研讨会的结果开发了资源文档的最终版本。这本长达45页的资源指南的内容针对精神卫生保健提供者，管理人员和患者（包括家庭和护理人员）。结论：使用多方法方法导致开发了资源指南，该指南以数字心理健康工具的现有证据为基础，并与利益相关者和最终用户共同设计。该资源指南现已免费在线公开提供，并且正在通过数字健康和心理健康网站进行推广。
