Detailed Description
Overview:
Participants will be the primary caregivers (age ≥18 years) of children with possible congenital Zika virus infection. Participants will be recruited from the pediatric services of the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences Campus (UPR-MSC), as well as other clinics and community-based organizations in Puerto Rico. In the intervention, a community health worker (CHW) will deliver personalized sessions framed around a multi-media health communication tool. The CHW will deliver the intervention over a 6-month period.
Study procedures:
Participants will be the primary caregivers (age ≥18 years) of children with possible congenital Zika virus infection. Participants will be recruited via provider referral, peer referral, and flyers. Once an individual expresses interest in the study, a study staff member will screen that individual to assess eligibility. Individuals who are eligible will be invited to enroll through an informed consent process and complete a baseline interview. After completion of the baseline interview, study staff will randomize participants into an enhanced control condition (ECC) or intervention condition that receives an individually-tailored community health worker intervention. At trial exit, all participants, including the ECC group, will complete an in-depth assessment to measure their barriers to follow-up Zika-related pediatric services and provide feedback about their experience in the study.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Community health worker (CHW) group
Participants in the intervention arm will receive 5 one-on-one sessions over 6 months with a CHW, as well as a manual and written materials on child development.
At baseline and exit, all participants will be assessed using instruments to measure demographics and self-perceived barriers.
