Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The overall purpose of the study is to evaluate nutrition education interventions to promote pulse incorporated complementary food to the wider rural community through the government system to improve maternal knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) and nutritional status of young children (6 to 24 months). The hypothesis is that nutrition education improves mothers knowledge, attitude and practice of pulse incorporated complementary food and improves dietary intake of iron and zinc and nutritional status of young children.

Clinical Trial Description

Only 9% of the population in Southern Ethiopia consumes pulse and pulse total contribution of the diet is less than 4.9% for women and less than 3.3% for children.Young children are at risk of developing malnutrition because of dietary inadequacy. Educational interventions can improve feeding practices and growth of young children. The overall purpose of the study is to evaluate nutrition education interventions to promote pulse incorporated complementary food to the wider rural community through the government system to improve maternal knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) and nutritional status of young children (6 to 24 months). The hypothesis is that nutrition education improves mothers knowledge, attitude and practice of pulse incorporated complementary food and improves dietary intake of iron and zinc and nutritional status of young children. Before, at midline and end of the intervention we will assess the KAP of mothers, dietary intake of iron and zinc and nutritional status of young children. The nutrition education intervention will be given for 9 months. Serum ferritin, serum zinc, C-Reactive protein and hemoglobin and dietary intake of iron and zinc of young children will be measured at the beginning and ending of the intervention. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
