4 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study involves an emergency department (ED)-based intervention utilizing Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques and patient-centered eHealth materials (e.g., a tailored, mobile-friendly website and text messages) to promote the correct and consistent use of size-appropriate child passenger restraints (car seats, booster seats, and seat belts). This study is designed as an adaptive randomized controlled trial, recruiting English and Spanish speaking caregivers of children 6 months to 10 years old.
The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a tensioning progress indicator light to achieve proper harness tensioning in child safety seats.
This study compares a video-based social learning method to the traditional didactic method as a new way to teach caregivers about child passenger safety, including how to install a car seat. Half of the caregivers will attend the video-based social learning class, while the other half will attend the traditional didactic class. The investigators hypothesize that the video-based social learning method will lead to an equal or greater increase in caregiver child passenger safety proficiency when compared to the traditional didactic method.
The purpose of this study is to determine if video education is an effective means of caregiver education in the waiting room of a pediatric emergency department (ED). This will be tested with the showing of a child passenger safety video.
