Multi-site Trial Using SMS to Improve Infant Weight (SMS)

2018年5月24日 更新者:Cristina Palacios、University of Puerto Rico

Multi-site Trial Using Short Mobile Messages (SMS) to Improve Infant Weight in Low-income Minorities

The goals of this multi-site clinical trial are to pilot test weekly SMS sent to parents/caregivers of infants to improve feeding practices and decrease excessive weight gain in infants who are participants of the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program in Puerto Rico and Hawaii. The intervention consists of weekly SMS for 4 months to reinforce the feeding messages provided by WIC.

詳細な説明

The goals of this multi-site clinical trial are to pilot test weekly SMS sent to parents/caregivers of infants to improve feeding practices and decrease excessive weight gain in infants who are participants of the WIC program in two distinct locations, Puerto Rico and Hawaii; to assess acceptability and practicality of the intervention; and to assess acceptability of collecting blood spots in future studies. The investigators will recruit a convenience sample of parent/caregivers of infants 0-2 months participating in the WIC program in Puerto Rico and Hawaii to send weekly SMS for 4 months. The weekly messages will focus on reinforcing the breastfeeding messages provided by WIC, preventing overfeeding, delaying introduction of solid foods, and delaying and reducing baby juice consumption, which are key issues in low-income populations. Participants will complete validated questionnaires and anthropometry before and after the trial and results will be compared to the control group (no messages). Participants will also answer short questions by SMS at different points and an interview at the end of the trial to assess the SMS. The investigators will assess how many participants agree to collect blood spots in their infants in future studies.

武器と介入

参加者グループ / アーム
介入・治療
実験的:Nutrition messages
The intervention will focus on reinforcing the WIC breastfeeding messages, preventing overfeeding (i.e. using spoon to feed baby, not adding baby food or cereal to bottle, not placing their babies to sleep with a bottle, feeding their babies without distractions, etc), delaying introduction of solid foods, and delaying and reducing baby juice consumption. Constructs in the transtheoretical model such as self-efficacy and decisional balance will be used to address key determinants of behavior change to ensure relevance to the audience, and will target individuals both at the earlier and later stages of change. The messages are written at a grade 5 level in Spanish (PR site) and English (Hawaii site) and will be sent on different days and times of the week.
This is an intervention using short mobile messages (SMS)
アクティブコンパレータ:General health messages
The control group will receive weekly SMS about general infant's health issues, such as placing the infant on his/her back to sleep, the timeline for immunizations, the proper use of car seats, asthma and other respiratory conditions common among small children, and other health information relevant to infants. The investigators will follow the same protocol (schedule, length, language, etc.) as for the intervention messages.

この研究は何を測定していますか?

主要な結果の測定

結果測定
メジャーの説明
時間枠
Excessive weight gain
時間枠:0-6 months
Infant weight-for-length percentile will be calculated using the World Health Organization growth charts, as recommended by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for this age. Excessive weight will be categorized as ≥90th percentile
0-6 months

二次結果の測定

結果測定
メジャーの説明
時間枠
Acceptability of collecting blood spots
時間枠:0-2 months
When recruiting participants, the investigators will ask if they agree to participate in collecting a blood spot sample in their infants. This will be done through a short questionnaire.
0-2 months
Acceptability of the intervention - from short SMS
時間枠:0-6 months
At different points of the trial, participants will be asked to answer short quantitative and qualitative questions sent by SMS about acceptability of the intervention. All answers to these questions will be summed and assign as "acceptable" if answers were positive 80% or greater of the times.
0-6 months
Acceptability of the intervention - from exit interview
時間枠:0-6 months
Participants will complete a short semi-structured qualitative interview at the end of the trial to provide the opportunity to make open comments about the acceptability of the SMS. Answers from the interviews will be loaded into a qualitative data analysis software. Recordings will be transcribed verbatim for content analysis and the team will develop a coding scheme. Similar codes will be grouped into broader concepts to facilitate the analysis. Analysis will involve identifying recurring themes based.
0-6 months
Practicality of the intervention - from short SMS
時間枠:0-6 months
At different points of the trial, participants will be asked to answer short quantitative and qualitative questions sent by SMS about practicality of the intervention. Answers will be summed and classified as "practical" if answers were positive 80% or greater of the times.
0-6 months
Practicality of the intervention - from exit interview
時間枠:0-6 months
Participants will complete a short semi-structured qualitative interview at the end of the trial to provide the opportunity to make open comments about the practicality of the SMS. Answers from the interviews will be loaded into a qualitative data analysis software. Recordings will be transcribed verbatim for content analysis and the team will develop a coding scheme. Similar codes will be grouped into broader concepts to facilitate the analysis. Analysis will involve identifying recurring themes based.
0-6 months
Infant food frequency
時間枠:0-6 months
This questionnaire includes 52 food items with a brief description on how these were prepared and/or their source (e.g., raw, canned, etc.). It also includes different portion sizes and information on supplements use. Using frequency of intake of each food and amount reported for each food, a total amount of each food per day will be calculated.
0-6 months
General infant feeding practices
時間枠:0-6 months
This questionnaire includes questions about type of infant feeding (breast or bottle-feeding), type of milk used, age of stopping breastfeeding (exclusive and partial), age of introduction of juices and solid foods, use of the bottle to sleep baby, methods of feeding babies (i.e. using spoon, adding solids to bottle, etc).
0-6 months
