Official title
The Impact of Telelactation Services on Breastfeeding Outcomes: Digital Tele-MILC Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This project will assess the impact of a novel breastfeeding support intervention ("telelactation"), delivered via video calls on personal devices including mobile phones and tablets. The goal of this intervention is to increase access to International Board Certified Lactation Consultants to improve, and reduce disparities in, breastfeeding rates. By implementing a digital randomized controlled trial that recruits participants through a popular pregnancy tracker mobile phone application, this mixed methods study will recruit a national sample of 1800-2400 individuals (depending on rate of attrition) during their third trimester of pregnancy to 1) provide evidence on the effectiveness of a widely available, yet understudied, service and 2) leverage technology to promote one of the most widely recommended health behaviors to improve children's health and to reduce disparities in key maternal and child health outcomes.
