Generations in Families Talking Safe Sleep

Status unconfirmed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Sudden Infant Death

In brief

Teen mothers present a unique set of challenges in reducing the risk for sleep-related infant mortality, in part because they may not be the sole decision-maker for an infant's sleep environment and position and they make seek advice from older female support people. Investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial of a educational intervention to mitigate the risks of unsafe infant sleep practices across generations. Given the complexity and variability of teen-SCG relationships, investigators will include an examination of inter- and intra-personal factors that are key control variables or may mediate the uptake of safe sleep recommendations. Investigators believe that the intervention will empower support people to positively influence a teen mother's adoption of safe sleep recommendations.
