Interactive Server Training for Fetal Alcohol Protection

描述(由研究人员提供)：胎儿酒精综合征(FAS)是西方世界导致发育障碍的主要原因，完全可以预防。尽管如此，20%的饮酒女性在怀孕期间仍会继续饮酒。预防努力未能及时接触到许多高危妇女，无法进行有效干预，饮酒孕妇(孕妇)经常光顾的一个场所是公共饮酒场所。当酒精服务人员通常可以看到怀孕的时候，通过在怀孕中期和晚期进行干预，可以防止许多损害。酒吧工作人员和顾客之间持续不断的社会关系也为在怀孕早期、在怀孕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，以防止Fas和其他胎儿酒精影响。该培训计划以光盘的形式，将纳入NIAAA目前的一项研究中证明在促进服务器对怀孕饮酒者进行干预方面的有效性的部分，并将纳入酒精服务机构突出的培训问题。该计划将与140家酒吧老板、经理和酒精服务器一起进行评估，使用预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.
