NCT ID: NCT05281575 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Psychological Distress

Evaluation of Baby Friendly Spaces in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh.

Start date: November 28, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The overarching goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of the Baby Friendly Spaces (BFS) program for improvement of maternal psychosocial wellbeing among Rohingya refugee mothers and their malnourished infants and young children in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. The purpose of the BFS program is to provide convenient, accessible psychosocial support to mothers in order to facilitate their ability to care for their children. BFS activities include: counselling for infant and young child feeding practices, hygiene education and promotion, group discussions on parenting skills, mother-child bonding activities and maternal psychosocial support. In Cox's Bazar, the BFS program is not currently standardized as intended. In this study, integrated nutrition centers that offer the BFS program are being paired and randomized to receive re-training in a standardized and implementation-enhanced version of BFS (enhanced-BFS) or to continue BFS services as usual (TAU-BFS). Primary (symptoms of psychological distress and functional impairment) and secondary (subjective psychosocial wellbeing and coping) outcomes will be assessed immediately post intervention (8 weeks after initial baseline assessment) via interviewer-administered surveys. The central hypothesis is that mothers attending enhanced-BFS services will experience greater improvement in all psychosocial well-being indicators relative to mothers in the standard, treatment-as-usual centers.
