Breastfeeding Clinical Trial

Official title:
Breastfeeding Education Support Tool for Baby

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will compare data associated with breastfeeding experiences and outcomes--specifically, breastfeeding continuation after initiation, exclusivity for 6 months of an infant's life, and breastfeeding duration--among 120 subjects recruited late in pregnancy and provided peer counseling and education services incorporating mobile health (mHealth) tools during a period of at least 6 months post-delivery with the data collected from a control group of approximately 120 mothers that did not receive the study intervention.

Clinical Trial Description

Approximately 24 women that are experienced in breastfeeding will be recruited to serve in the role of breastfeeding peer counselors. These women will assess usability and acceptability of mobile health (mHealth) education tools designed following a series of focus groups for the project, Breastfeeding Education Support Tool for Baby. The mHealth tools will be used during the training and education of the peer counselor subjects. Following appropriate modification, some of the mHealth tools will be used with a total of approximately 120 women recruited late in pregnancy for initial breastfeeding counseling before delivery and the subsequent provision, for at least 6 months post-delivery, of home visits for peer counseling and education that integrates use of mHealth tools. Peer counselors and research staff will gather data from mothers receiving the intervention about breastfeeding experiences and outcomes, including breastfeeding continuation after initiation, exclusivity for 6 months of an infant's life, and breastfeeding duration. This data will be compared to data obtained through surveys administered to a control group of approximately 120 maternal subjects that received standard pre- and post-delivery care but not the study intervention of peer counseling and education using mHealth tools. ;
