About this study

Official title: Pilot Adaptive Tool To Encourage Risk Reduction in iNfancy (PATTERN)

The purpose of this research study is to learn about different approaches to promoting healthy growth among infants, and understanding parents' likes and dislikes of an approach to reducing risk factors for obesity later in life. The study includes filling out some forms with questions about your baby and your thoughts about your baby's growth and health, and engaging in a pattern of changes in or prevention of risk factors in the first year of life. Parents will receive information about changes and some tools and materials to take home with them. Some parents may receive phone calls between visits as well. The study takes place from soon after birth through the infant's age of 9 months. The estimated total time of interaction between the study staff and parents during the study period is 4 hours.

Read the detailed description

As this is a dyad study, each dyad is considered to be a participant and demographic information will reflect the infant in the dyad, per parent report.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants Satisfied or Very Satisfied With Information Given to Them, as Measured by Follow up Questionnaire

    Completed Likert scale with 1=very unsatisfied, 2=unsatisfied, 3=neutral, 4=satisfied, 5=very satisfied

    Measured: 3 to 6 months after baseline assessment

  2. Percentage of Successful Contacts With Families Via Telephone and/or in Clinic

    Number of successful contacts with families divided by number of attempts to contact by research staff x 100

    Measured: 3 to 6 months after baseline assessment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percent of Participants Exclusively Breastfeeding at 4 Months Postnatal Age

    Dyad caregivers were asked what type of milk was being consumed by the infant, with 4 options available: 1) Formula only, 2) Mostly formula and some breast milk, 3) Mostly breast milk, but some formula, or 4) Breast milk only.

    Measured: 3 to 6 months after baseline assessment

  2. Percent of Participants Delaying Complementary Feeding Until 4 Months Postnatal Age

    Dyads caregivers were asked, "Is your baby eating solid foods yet or do you put any solid foods in the bottle?", with 2 options available: 1) Yes or 2) No

    Measured: 3 to 6 months after baseline assessment

  3. Percent of Participants Reporting "Never" Engaging in Screentime While Feeding and With '0' Minutes of Active TV Watching at 4 Months Postnatal Age

    Dyad caregivers were asked "I watch TV or look at or use my phone while feeding my baby" and responded with one of 5 Likert-scale responses: 1) Never, 2) Seldom, 3) Half of the time, 4) Most of the time, 5) Always

    Measured: 3 to 6 months after baseline assessment
