School-based Program of Promotion of Self-regulation for Healthy Eating and Oral Health: Study in the Context of the School Health Program in Brazil

The Health and Education Ministries of Brazil launched the Health in School Program - PSE - in 2007. The purpose of the PSE is twofold: articulate the actions of the education and health systems to identify risk factors and prevent them; and promote the education for health in the public elementary school system. In the health field, the self-regulation (SR) construct can contribute to the understanding of life habits which can affect the improvement of individuals' health. This study aims to present a school-based program, Promotion of Self-Regulation in Health (SRH), which adds the self-regulation approach to the topics of healthy eating and oral health of the PSE for elementary school. A study of a randomized clinical trial enrolling the 5th grade students of public elementary schools from the south of Brazil is presented. The study has two phases. In Phase 1, teachers and health professionals will participate in a training program on SRH, and in Phase 2, they will conduct an intervention in class: Promotion of SRH. The participants were randomly assigned into three groups: Condition I followed the PSE program, Condition II group followed the PSE and the SRH program, and the control group did not enroll in either of the health promotion programs. For the evaluation of the study, the following measures and instruments were applied: Body Mass Index (BMI), Simplified Oral Hygiene Index (OHI-S), Previous Day Food Questionnaire (PFDQ), Declarative Knowledge for Health Instrument, Food Preference Instrument, Student´s Attitudes and Perceptions and Parents Perceptions and Influences on the Health Instrument, Food Availability and Oral Health Instrument, Self-Regulation for Health Scale, Self-Efficacy for Health Scale. Students in the three groups will be assessed five times throughout the year: before the beginning of the intervention program, three months into intervention, six months into intervention, at the end of the intervention, and, finally, six months post intervention to check for the impact of the program on children health.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

9 years to 13 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Teachers must teach a 5th grade class in a public elementary school
  • Health professionals must be working in a primary care unit;
  • Students must be enrolled in the 5th grade in a public elementary school;
  • Parents/guardians: must be responsible for a child enrolled in a 5th grade class in a public elementary school
  • All participants must be volunteers and must sign the Free and Informed Consent Term or Term of Assent (parents / guardians and students);

Exclusion Criteria:

Potential participants who do not meet all the inclusion criteria, including 5th grade students with special educational needs that limit their cognitive autonomy, will be excluded from the study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Self-regulation skills for healthy eating and oral health
Time Frame: 3 years
Development of self-regulatory competencies for healthier eating and oral health in childhood. These variables wiil be evaluated through Self-Regulation for Health Scale.
3 years
Self-efficacy perception for healthy eating and oral health
Time Frame: 3 years
Develop increased self-efficacy perception for healthy eating and oral health care. These variables wiil be evaluated through Self-efficacy for Health Scale.
3 years
Declarative Knowledge for Health
Time Frame: 3 years
Questions for evaluate children knowledge have about healthy eating and oral health. Will be evaluated the numbers of correct answer. These variable These variable wiil be evaluated through Declarative Knowledge for Health Instrument.
3 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Body Mass Index
Time Frame: 3 years
Numbers of students with Index of overweight, obesity and thinness in the study population. These measure will be evaluated trough BMI.
3 years
Simplified Oral Hygiene Index - OHI-S
Time Frame: 3 years
Numbers and classification of Index of oral hygiene (good, regular and poor), Identified by the presence of dental plaque in the study population.
3 years
Food consumption information
Time Frame: 3 years
Seeks information from schoolchildren about the food they consumed on the day prior. will be evaluated the food group consumed in each meals on three days of week. These variable will evaluated by Previous Day Food Questionnaire .
