INFANT PASSENGER RESTRAINT EDUCATION STUDY

这个子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和调查员(PI)可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可能会出现在其他CRISE条目中。列出的机构是针对中心的，而不一定是针对调查员的机构。将衡量的具体概念是，包括动手演示和返回演示新的精神运动技能(正确安装汽车座椅)的教育干预将比不包括动手部分的教育课程更有效地帮助父母保持学习。要检验的假设是：给出一个标准化的教育计划，其中包括动手组件，父母将展示在车辆中正确安装和使用儿童乘客安全带。这项研究将提供关于单一时间点干预效果的数据。从这项研究中获得的知识将有助于制定有效的儿童乘客安全教育计划，并支持这些计划的资金申请。更多的父母接受有效的教育将导致更多的孩子得到适当的约束。这将导致更少的儿童在机动车撞车事故中重伤和死亡。它将提供证据支持预防性卫生保健的成本效益。这将对减少公路上的儿童死亡和重伤人数产生直接影响，并将改善儿童及其家庭的生活质量。这项研究于2003年11月获得了机构IRB的最终批准。自那时以来，儿童权利委员会一直没有提供临床支持，目前正在作出安排，以取代这种支持。这些措施包括利用一名护理本科生帮助招募参与者并提供教育干预的教学部分，以及为存放汽车座椅和提供教育寻找空间。招募参与者的目标开始时间是2004年4月，干预措施从5月或6月开始。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The specific concept that will be measured is that an educational intervention that includes a hands-on demonstration and return demonstration of a new psychomotor skill (correct car seat installation) will be more effective in helping a parent retain the learning than an educational session that does not include the hands-on component. The hypothesis to be tested is: given a standardized education program, which includes a hands-on component, a parent will exhibit proper installation and use of a child passenger restraint in a vehicle. This study will provide data about the effect of the intervention at a single point in time. The knowledge obtained from this study will be useful for developing effective child passenger safety education programs, and in supporting requests for funding for these programs. More parents receiving effective education will result in more children being properly restrained. This will lead to less children being seriously injured and killed in motor vehicle crashes. It will provide evidence to support the cost effectiveness of preventive health care. This will have a direct impact on reducing the number of children killed and seriously injured on our highways, and will lead to improved quality of life for children and their families. Study received final institutional IRB approval in November, 2003. Clinical support from CRC has not been available since then, and arrangements to replace that support are being made. These include using an undergraduate nursing student for help in recruitment of participants and providing the didactic portion of the educational intervention, and finding space for storage of the car seats and provision of the education. Targeted start time for recruitment of participants is April 2004, with the interventions commencing May or June.
