Community Interventions to Improve Breastfeeding

Start date: September 23, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The percentage of women breastfeeding their newborn babies is very low among minority populations such as African American women in Mississippi. There are good results with initiatives supporting the initiation of breastfeeding after delivery. However, the percentages of continuation of breastfeeding up to 3, 6 or 12 months are still very low in Mississippi. Therefore, this project is proposing to focus on community interventions including social and cultural components to promote and support continuation of breastfeeding. - The social component will include interventions to promote supportive environments in the workplace for lactating mothers, as well as promoting the use of mother's milk to feed infants in daycare centers. - The cultural component will focus on educating and raising awareness of the benefit of BF to prevent absenteeism at work, to reduce child illnesses, and to promote healthy child development. The cultural component will target the mother with her family and spouse/partner, employers, and daycare managers.

Development of Mobile Application Based Breastfeeding Education Program and Evaluation of the Program Effectiveness

Start date: November 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Purpose of Research: The purpose of this research is to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a mobile application-based breastfeeding education program. Research Hypotheses H1: Exclusive breastfeeding rate is higher for mothers in the experimental group than the mothers in the control group in the fourth postpartum week. H2: The mothers in the experimental group had higher scores on the Evaluation of Breastfeeding Problems in the fourth week after delivery than the mothers in the control group. H3: Exclusive breastfeeding rate is higher for the mothers in the experimental group than the mothers in the control group in the eighth postpartum week. H4: The mothers in the experimental group had higher scores on the Evaluation of Breastfeeding Problems at the eighth postpartum week than the mothers in the control group. In the first stage of the research, a mobile application-based breastfeeding education program was developed and piloted. In the second stage of the study, the mobile application-based breastfeeding education program was applied to the primiparous mothers in the experimental group for eight weeks, starting from the first day of postpartum.The control group received only routine health care. 617 / 5.000 Çeviri sonuçları Personal Information Form, Breastfeeding Evaluation Scale and Breastfeeding Problems Evaluation Scale were applied to the mothers in the Experimental and Control groups on the first postpartum day. - A mobile application was installed on the phones of the mothers in the experimental group and information was provided. The control group benefited only from routine nursing care. - Infants' Physical Development Monitoring Form, Breastfeeding Monitoring Form, Breastfeeding Problems Evaluation Scale will be applied to the mothers in the experimental and control groups in the fourth and eighth weeks postpartum. - Mobile Application Evaluation Form was also applied to the experimental group in the eighth week.

Breastfeeding - a Good Start Together

Start date: April 26, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The Breastfeeding - a Good Start Together intervention study aims to increase the proportion of women who breastfeed for four and six months, and proportionately more in a group of women who are in risk of early breastfeeding cessation; and thus reduce social inequality of mother and infant health.

Leading Advancements in the Uptake of Newborn Community Health

LAUNCH
Start date: July 11, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of the study is to determine the impact of a behavior change intervention that partners Orthodox priests with members of the Health Development Army (HDA) and train them to conduct newborn health outreach to increase rates of early initiation of and exclusive breastfeeding through 6 months and vaccination coverage at six months. Secondary objectives include: - Determine the impact of the intervention on infant growth at six months, observed and self-reported changes in nutrition and feeding practices of mother and infants, and early identification of newborn illness. - Design a culturally relevant, scalable intervention for community-based newborn and infant health in Gondar in partnership with local partners, the Federal Ministry of Health, and the Gondar Regional Health Bureau.

Mobile Phone Text Messaging Plus Motivational Interviewing: Effects on Breastfeeding, Child Health Outcomes

MTM-MI
Start date: July 22, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background Lack of breastfeeding, at a minimum, doubles the risk of infant death in the first six months of life. Many infants in low resourced settings at high risk of infectious disease morbidity and death are deprived of the immunological and nutritional benefits of breast milk, through an attenuated duration of breast milk exposure. South Africa has one of the lowest exclusive breastfeeding rates in Africa, 8% in infants under 6 months of age. Mobile phone text messaging as a simple, low-cost intervention improves medication adherence among patients with HIV, diabetes and tuberculosis. Motivational interviewing has been beneficial across many health problems, including HIV viral load suppression, body weight loss, and alcohol and tobacco use. Combining a number of intervention approaches is more likely to influence behaviour change than an individual approach. Investigators assume that continued breastfeeding is sustained among women living with HIV receiving weekly text messages combined with motivational interviewing and that this contributes to improved infant health outcomes. Objectives: 1. To determine the effects of mobile phone text messaging combined with motivational interviewing versus standard of care on: (a) Continued exclusive breastfeeding to six month of child age, (b) Continued any form of breastfeeding to 6 month of child age. 2. To determine the contribution of the combined intervention on improved infant health outcomes: (a) Infant morbidity (all -cause hospitalization) and death (all -causes, (b) Infant growth. Methods Investigators propose a group sequential clinical trial to determine whether text messaging combined with motivational interviewing will prolong breastfeeding and the contribution of the combined intervention on improved infant health outcomes. The study will recruit 275 women living with HIV and HIV exposed infants at birth and randomly assign study interventions for 6 months.

Evaluating an eHealth Breastfeeding Resource

Start date: March 25, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This trial will evaluate an eHealth breastfeeding co-parenting resource designed for mothers and their co-parents. Couples will be randomized to study groups and the intervention group will receive information about this resource or the control group will receive usual care. The primary outcomes will be exclusive breastfeeding at 4 and 24 weeks postpartum.
