Ingen indgriben: Control
Women will receive standard antenatal care but will not receive any additional handwashing promotion, soap, or handwashing device during their enrollment.
At the end of data collection, handwashing with soap will be recommended to participants in the control arm and their families.
|
|
|
Eksperimentel: Clinic
Handwashing promotion from healthcare workers at antenatal care clinic.
|
Pregnant women will receive handwashing promotion from a trained facility-based health care worker during her regular antenatal visit at a healthcare clinic.
To the extent feasible, everyone accompanying the pregnant woman will be invited to take part in the behavior change communication session.
The participant will be provided with several bars of soap to take home and she will be encouraged to maintain a designated place for washing hands (with soap and water) at the home.
A poster indicating the key events for handwashing with soap will be posted at the clinic and smaller posters will be given to the participant to post in her home.
A system will be established to send regular SMS messages to the participant promote handwashing with soap during the neonatal period.
|
|
Eksperimentel: Clinic + home
Handwashing promotion from healthcare workers at antenatal care clinic and from community health volunteers at home visits.
|
Women will receive all components of the clinic-based handwashing promotion in addition to handwashing promotion during 3-4 home visits before their expected delivery date and during the neonatal period from a community health volunteer.
All household members present will be invited to join in the session, with emphasis on including all caregivers of the neonate.
|
|
Eksperimentel: Clinic + home + handwashing device
Handwashing promotion from healthcare workers at antenatal care clinic and from community health volunteers at home visits with provision of one handwashing device.
|
Women will receive all components of the clinic + home-based handwashing promotion intervention in addition to one handwashing device (i.e.
tap and basin to use as a handwashing station) during the first home visit by the community health volunteer.
The community health volunteer will work with the woman and her family to identify the location where the neonate will be most of the time in order to position the handwashing station as close to the neonate as possible.
