Development and reporting of a specialised antenatal music therapy intervention using the MRC framework and TIDieR checklist

Using the TIDieR checklist to report complex interventions provides a structured, systematic way of conveying necessary detail. This method enables music therapists, clinicians, and researchers to understand the SAMT's underlying rationale, theoretical foundation, delivery methods, and implementation considerations, facilitating replication, refinement, and integration into perinatal mental health services and research.
