This review evaluates the effectiveness and implementation of digital health interventions (DHIs) for mental health issues in children and young people (CYP).
Conducted a meta-review of existing reviews on DHIs for mental health in CYP.
Updated systematic review of recent randomised controlled trials (RCTs) involving DHIs.
Included 21 reviews and identified 30 new RCTs related to various mental health disorders.
Clinical benefit of DHIs, especially computerised cognitive behavioural therapy (cCBT), is supported for depression and anxiety in adolescents.
Uncertainty exists over the effectiveness of DHIs for managing ADHD, autism, psychosis, and eating disorders.
Evidence regarding the cost-effectiveness of DHIs remains lacking.
