目标：探索使用智能手机改善儿童水果和蔬菜摄入量的移动医疗的潜力。设计：为期 10 周的随机对照和干预试点研究。设置：当地图书馆的故事时间课程。参与者：30 名家长和儿童（3-8 岁）的方便样本。干预：通过移动 Jump2Health 网站、Facebook 帖子和短信提供营养干预。主要结果措施：儿童膳食和零食的电子食品照片，与水果和蔬菜消费相关的 10 个问题调查、通过 Veggie Meter 测量皮肤类胡萝卜素水平的反射光谱、体重指数百分位数以及移动学习调查。分析：描述性统计和 Wilcoxon 配对符号秩检验。结果：儿童和家长的 Veggie Meter 值显示，与对照组相比，干预组的儿童和家长的周 x 治疗相互作用显着（P < .001 和家长 (P < .001）。结论和启示：这项试点研究提供了一个潜在有效的计划，包括移动网站、社交媒体和测试消息组件，以增加幼儿的水果和蔬菜摄入量。
Objective: To explore the potential of mHealth using smartphones to improve fruit and vegetable intake in children.Design: A 10-week randomized control and intervention pilot study.Setting: Story time sessions at local libraries.Participants: A convenience sample of 30 parents and children (aged 3-8 years).Intervention: Delivery of nutrition intervention through the mobile Jump2Health website, Facebook posts, and text messages.Main Outcome Measures: Electronic food photos of children's meals and snacks, 10-question survey related to fruit and vegetable consumption, reflectance spectroscopy via Veggie Meter to measure skin carotenoid levels, body mass index percentiles, and a mobile learning survey.Analysis: Descriptive statistics and Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test.Results: Veggie Meter values for children and parents showed significant week x treatment interactions in the intervention group compared with the control group for both children (P < .001 and parents (P < .001).Conclusions and Implications: This pilot study offers a potentially effective program including a mobile Web site, social media, and test message components to increase fruit and vegetable intake of young children.
