Interactive Server Training for Fetal Alcohol Protection

描述（由研究者提供）：胎儿酒精综合征（FAS）在西方世界是导致发育障碍的主要原因，并且是完全可以预防的。尽管如此，仍有20%的女性在怀孕期间继续饮酒。预防工作未能及时接触到许多高危妇女并进行有效干预。饮酒孕妇经常光顾的场所是公共饮酒场所。在妊娠中期和晚期，酒精服务人员通常可以看到怀孕，通过干预可以预防许多损害。酒吧工作人员和顾客之间持续的社会关系也为向怀孕早期、怀孕前的妇女传播预防信息提供了机会。本研究将设计并评估一个交互式的、基于计算机的酒精服务器训练程序，以预防FAS和其他胎儿酒精影响。该培训方案以CD-ROM形式提供，将纳入NIAAA目前的一项研究中在促进服务员干预怀孕饮酒者方面已证明有效的组成部分，并将纳入酒类服务机构的突出培训问题。140名酒吧老板、经理和酒品服务员将对该计划进行评估，使用事前-事后设计来评估该计划的影响，并收集过程和结果数据。

DESCRIPTION (provided by investigator): Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) is a leading cause of developmental disability in the Western world, and is entirely preventable. Still, 20% of women who drink continue to do so during pregnancy. Efforts at prevention have failed to access many high-risk women in time to intervene effectively, A venue frequently visited by drinking gravidas (pregnant women) is the public drinking establishment. Much damage can be prevented by intervention in the second and third trimesters when pregnancy is ordinarily visible to alcohol service personnel. Ongoing social relationships between bar staff and customers also provide opportunities for transmission of prevention information to women early in pregnancy, before pregnancy is visible. This study will design and evaluate an interactive, computer-based alcohol server-training program for the prevention of FAS and other fetal alcohol effects. The training program, on a CD-ROM, will incorporate components of demonstrated effectiveness in promoting server intervention with pregnant drinkers from a current NIAAA study, and will incorporate training issues salient to alcohol serving establishments. The program will be evaluated with 140 bar owners, managers and alcohol servers using pre- post- design to assess the impact of the program and collect both process and outcome data.
