Interactive Server Training for Fetal Alcohol Protection

描述（由研究者提供）：胎儿酒精综合征（FAS）是西方世界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。在怀孕的第二和第三个三个月，当酒精服务人员通常可以看到怀孕时，可以通过干预来预防许多损害。酒吧工作人员与顾客之间的持续社会关系也为在怀孕早期，即怀孕明显之前向妇女传播预防信息提供了机会。 这项研究将设计和评估一个互动的，基于计算机的酒精服务器培训计划，以预防FAS和其他胎儿酒精的影响。培训计划，在光盘，将纳入组件的证明有效性，促进服务器干预怀孕饮酒者从目前的NIAAA研究，并将纳入培训问题突出的酒精服务机构。该计划将与140名酒吧老板，经理和酒精服务器使用前-后-设计进行评估，以评估该计划的影响，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.
