A Pilot Intervention With Families of Children With Special Health Care Needs
A Theory-Based Intervention to Prevent Child Neglect in High-Risk
Panoramica dello studio
Stato
Intervento / Trattamento
Descrizione dettagliata
This pilot randomized controlled trial will be conducted with 60 caregivers of children with special health care needs who have been reported to the child protection team at Boston Medical Center with concern for neglect that was ultimately not substantiated. Half of the subjects will be randomly assigned to receive the 6-session, one-on-one, in-person, behavioral intervention focused on problem solving, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance. The other half will be randomly assigned to the control group and will receive periodic check-ins and referrals to community resources as needed. Both groups will be followed for 12 months after randomization.
Children who have previously experienced neglect, or other forms of maltreatment, will not included in the study. Children will be defined as having special health care needs if they have a chronic physical, emotional, or behavioral condition.
With this pilot, the investigators aim to field-test study mechanics, including enrollment, randomization, and the collection of baseline and follow-up data; and obtain empiric estimates of study parameters to inform a subsequent fully-powered randomized controlled trial.

Sperimentale: Intervention
The intervention group will receive a one-on-one in-person intervention of 6 sessions, each lasting approximately 60 minutes. The intervention is intended to be delivered over a period of 12 weeks, with sessions occurring every 1-2 weeks. The overview of the 6 sessions is as follows:

The intervention group will receive a 6-session intervention. The overview of the 6 sessions is as follows:

Comparatore attivo: Control
The families in the control group will be contacted by a member of the study team 6 times in 12 weeks to approximate the frequency of contact that the intervention group receives.
The study team member will check in with families on the telephone or in person and will help them connect with clinic and community resources as needed.

Misura Descrizione |
Lasso di tempo |
---|---|---|
Study Logistics - subject enrollment
Lasso di tempo: Monthly change from baseline to 12 months post randomization
|
As this is a pilot study, the primary objective is to field test study logistics, including subject enrollment.
The investigators will review monthly counts of enrolled subjects from baseline to 12 months post-randomization, and will compare the number of subjects in each study arm to target enrollment goals.
Because of emerging consensus that group-to-group comparisons in a pilot study are not only invalid but also misleading, estimating effect size is deliberately not our primary study objective.

Monthly change from baseline to 12 months post randomization
|
Study Logistics - fidelity of intervention delivery
Lasso di tempo: 3 months post randomization
|
For the intervention group, treatment fidelity will be assessed by audio taping a random 10% of sessions and scoring them with standardized instruments.
The investigators will measure the proportion of sessions delivered with fidelity.
Because of emerging consensus that group-to-group comparisons in a pilot study are not only invalid but also misleading, estimating effect size is deliberately not our primary study objective.

Re-referral to child protection team or social services
Lasso di tempo: 3 months post randomization
|
The investigators will obtain empirical estimates of the proportion of control group subjects to be re-referred to child protection team or social services by 3 months post randomization.
This will allow the investigators to power a later study for this dichotomous outcome.

Adherence to recommended medical care
Lasso di tempo: 3 months post randomization

The investigators will conduct chart review to count the number of missed medical appointments, emergency department visits, and hospitalizations in the 90 days preceding the analysis.
The investigators will specifically examine the proportion of control group subjects to experience each outcome and will use this data to power a later study.

Parental well-being and mental health - Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology
Lasso di tempo: Change in score from baseline to 12 months post randomization
|
The investigators will use validated measures to evaluate parental well-being.
The measures include the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology.
The investigators will analyze the measure as a continuous variable (overall score) and dichotomous variable (depression present or absent) and will obtain empirical estimates of the following study parameters to inform power calculations for a subsequent study: 1) within-group standard deviation of each continuous outcome measure; 2) proportion of control group subjects to experience each dichotomous outcome; and 3) correlation over time of the outcome measured at both baseline and follow-up.
This will allow the investigators to power a later study, for both dichotomous and continuous outcomes.
