GrowWell - Responsive Bottle Feeding

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The overall goal of this research is use digital health to augment the clinical encounter with Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) clinicians and prevent rapid infant weight gain among children living in low-income households. Intervening on weight gain during infancy offers an opportunity to influence lifelong obesity risk. Using personalized motivational messages and targeted skills-training resources, the intervention will support parents and caregivers in adopting responsive feeding strategies. Knowledge gained from this project will be used to develop a future, larger grant submission focused on developing healthy feeding and eating habits among mother-infant dyads.

Official Title
