About this study

Injuries are the leading cause of death and disability in children in America. Most injuries can be prevented when parents implement effective child safety practices. This project will create a behaviorally based program to teach parents what to do to prevent injuries to their school aged child, in an effort to reduce the number of injuries, hospitalizations, medical costs, and missed work days.

Read the detailed description

This project will produce a comprehensive, interactive multimedia (IMM) program to teach childhood injury prevention skills to parents of children 6 through 11 years of age. This is one of a four-part series of funded programs to address injury prevention issues for three age groups of children (birth through 24 months, 2-5 years of age and 6-11 years of age). The program will be created in three formats: Internet/intranet, CD-ROM, and linear video (DVD) suitable for use in homes, worksites, medical settings, service agencies, and health information Web sites. On-screen narrators will guide the user through program material comprised of short video presentations, modeling vignettes demonstrating desired behaviors, supportive testimonials, and suggestions for modifications to home and recreational environments.

What is being measured

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

  1. Behavioral measure: identification of correct/incorrect car booster safety seat, seat belt, and bicycle helmet placement

    Parents viewed 2 car seat installations and were asked whether 7 car booster safety seat situations (e.g., age of the child for the seat) and 7 seat belt installations (e.g., placement of the seat belt) were correct or incorrect. Parents also viewed a bicycle helmet on a dummy and were asked to identify whether 2 helmet situations were correct or incorrect.

    Measured: Immediate posttest and 30-day follow-up

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Knowledge of injury prevention strategies

    An injury prevention knowledge scale was created across all content areas. The injury prevention knowledge scale contained 39 items (e.g., "To prevent scald injuries, hot water heaters should be set to …") for all age groups. The injury prevention knowledge scale represented the percent of items correctly endorsed.

    Measured: immediate posttest and 30-day follow-up

  2. Attitudes and beliefs about injury prevention strategies

    An injury prevention attitudes \& beliefs scale was created across all content areas (e.g., "A family emergency plan is extremely important strategy to keep your family safe in case of a fire."). Twenty-five items assessed attitudes \& beliefs for the 6-9 year age group and 24-items the 10-11 age group (alpha = .81 for both younger and older children). All items were assessed using a 5-point Likert scale with 1 = strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree.

    Measured: immediate posttest and 30-day follow-up

  3. Self-efficacy for engaging in injury prevention strategies

    An injury prevention self-efficacy scale was created from 29 items across all content areas for all age groups (e.g., "How confident are you that you know how to test the temperature of your water heater?") (alpha = .91 for all age groups) All items were assessed using a 5-point Likert scale with 1 = strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree.

    Measured: immediate posttest and 30-day follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Am Academy of Pediatrics print materials and Family safety 1-2-3 in people with Injuries, run by Oregon Center for Applied Science, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Behavioral measure: identification of correct/incorrect car booster safety seat, seat belt, and bicycle helmet placement (time frame: Immediate posttest and 30-day follow-up). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Dec 2014.
