Enhancing Nutrition and Antenatal Infection Treatment for Maternal and Child Health in Ethiopia

ENAT
Start date: March 1, 2020
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The ENAT study will test the impact of packages of antenatal interventions to enhance maternal nutrition and manage pregnancy infections on the outcomes of infant birth size, gestational length, and infant growth in the first 6 months of life. Approximately 5,280 pregnant women will be enrolled into the study from 12 health centers in the Amhara region of Ethiopia. Routine antenatal care will be strengthened in all health centers, and six health centers will be randomized to additionally provide a nutritional intervention including daily multiple-micronutrient or a fortified balanced-energy protein supplement for malnourished women. Women across all 12 health centers will be individually randomized to receive one of three infection management interventions in pregnancy: 1) enhanced infection management package (screening-treatment for urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted infections, presumptive deworming); 2) presumptive azithromycin (2g at <24 wks and a second dose at least 4 weeks later); or 3) placebo. The women and their infants will be followed until 6 months postpartum. Outcomes of interest include birth size (weight, length), gestational age, maternal weight gain in pregnancy, maternal anemia, antimicrobial resistance, and infant size at 6 months.
