2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The aim of this randomized trial is to compare a specially designed children's book to brochures for safe sleep education via clinical providers at a third trimester prenatal obstetric visit. Mothers in the control group will receive a specially designed children's book regarding the importance of reading with their infant at this visit, compared to brochures. Knowledge of safe sleep and home literacy orientation will be assessed at baseline prenatally, and their first postpartum obstetric visit.
The study team will evaluate the impact of an Infant Sleep Assessment (ISA) tool with motivational interviewing (MI) communication training on clinician-parent communication during 2-month Well Baby Visits (WBV) and parent reported and observed infant sleep practices. The study team's hypotheses are that 1) clinicians who utilize the ISA with MI training will more effectively communicate safe sleep information to their patients' parents, and 2) these parents will have safer infant sleep practices than parents whose clinicians are in a standard of care control group.
