Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study will be to determine how participation in Family-Centered Care (FCC) compared to Child-centered care (CCC) will affect caregiver engagement in IPV-based community services, caregiver perceptions of empowerment and survivor-defined practice, and clinical outcomes for children exposed to IPV.


Description:

The study population includes victims of intimate partner violence whose children < 3-years old have been referred to Child Protective Services due to exposure to IPV and who have agreed to a medical evaluation for the child(ren) in the child advocacy center or the SCAN clinic and don't already have a connection to an IPV advocate.

Primary Percentage of caregivers with follow-up visits with an IPV advocate Percentage of caregivers who have at least one follow-up visit with an IPV advocate by 3 months after the initial visit by self-report. up to 3 months post visit 1
Secondary Percentage of evaluated children who complete a skeletal survey Percentage of evaluated children <1 yr who complete a skeletal survey up to 4 weeks after the initial visit. up to 4 weeks post visit 1
Secondary Perceptions of survivor-defined practice using the Survivor Defined Practice Scale (SDPS) The SDPS is a nine-item measure that assesses intimate partner violence survivors' perception of the degree to which their advocates help them achieve goals they set for themselves, facilitate a spirit of partnership, and show sensitivity to their individual needs and styles. Items are scored on a scale of 1-4 (strongly disagree to strongly agree). Total score range of 9-36. Higher scores indicate a better perception of advocates help. up to 4 weeks post visit 1
Secondary Perceptions of safety-related empowerment using the Measure of Victim Empowerment Related to Safety (MOVERS) scale. MOVERS is a 13-item scale that measures survivor empowerment within the domain of safety. MOVERS is composed of three subscales that assess distinct domains of safety related empowerment: Internal Tools, Expectation of Support, and Trade-offs. Participants respond to each item using a five-point Likert scale (from "never true" to "always true") with the Trade-offs subscale being reversed scored. Scores on each subscale are summed to produce total scores. Higher scores indicate an increase in safety related empowerment. up to 4 weeks post visit 1
Secondary Immunization status determined by the number of participants that received all recommended vaccinations Immunization status determined by the number of participants that received all recommended vaccinations at well-child visits by age 2 up to 1 year post visit 1, until child is 2 years of age
Secondary Number of instances of medical neglect Number of instances of medical neglect will be assessed using a single question: "Please tell me how many times in the last year this has happened to you in trying to care for your child. How many times were you not able to make sure infant got to the doctor or hospital when he/she needed it?" up to 1 year post visit 1, until child is 2 years of age

Total score range from 14-70 with higher scores indicating more psychologically abusive experiences. up to 1 year post visit 1, until child is 2 years of age
Secondary Frequency of IPV-related episodes assessed using the Conflict Tactic Scale 2 (CTS2) for partner's behaviors The physical assault portion of the CTS2 is a 12 item questionnaire assessing chronicity and prevalence of IPV. Each item is scored on an 7-point Likert scale, ranging from 0 (never) to 6 (>20 times). Only items referring to the partner's behaviors will be included. Total scores range from 0-300 (for chronicity) and 0-12 (for prevalence) with higher scores denoting increased frequency of intimate partner violence. up to 1 year post visit 1, until child is 2 years of age
Secondary Number of reports to Child Protective Services (CPS) for IPV Number of reports called in to Child Protective Services (CPS) for IPV that identified child as a victim within one year of visit. up to 1 year post visit 1
Secondary Providers acceptability of the FCC model of care Acceptability of the FCC model of care by providers will be assessed using the 4- question Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) to assess approval and general liking of the Family-centered care model. Each question is scored on a 5-point Likert scale with a total score range of 4-20. Higher scores indicate more acceptability. from 3 months post visit 1, up to 1 year
Secondary Providers feasibility of the FCC model of care Feasibility of the FCC model of care by providers will be assessed using the 4-question Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM) to assess perceptions of practicability and ease of use of family-centered care.
