The goal of RC1 is to demonstrate that the incidence of early childhood caries (ECC) in an American Indian (Al) reservation community can be reduced through the use of Motivational Interviewing (Ml) to change maternal oral health behaviors. The specific aims are: 1) to develop culturally relevant health education and promotional materials for use in ECC prevention with an Al community; 2) to manualize an oral health Ml intervention for pregnant women/mothers of newborns; and 3) to test this intervention in a randomized trial. All of the women, ages 15 or older, who are receiving prenatal care in the clinics of a large Northern Plains Al reservation, will be asked to participate in this trial, and all will be provided with the oral health promotion materials and aids, which will be developed using community participation strategies. For the demonstration trial, approximately 600 women will be randomly assigned to the Ml group, or the control condition. For those in the Ml group, oral health visits will be made to their homes prenatally and immediately after birth, then at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months of age. Children will be followed for 3 years, and caries assessments will be conducted by calibrated dental hygienists within 3 months of each child's 1st, 2nd, and 3rd birthday. The primary outcome will be annual increase in caries incidence. Secondary outcome measures will focus on caries patterns and cost-effectiveness of the program. A variety of mediators/moderators also will be examined, including such issues as mother's oral health knowledge and beliefs, stress, self-efficacy, and locus of control. AI/AN children have 3 times more untreated decay than children in the general population, and access to both preventive services and professional dental treatment are inadequate. The decision was made not to pair clinical/pharmacologic approaches with Ml in order to provide a definitive test of the most universally available strategy for prevention-thai is, home oral disease prevention behaviors. If the effectiveness of Ml for preventing ECC can be demonstrated, future studies might look at adaptations for community implementation. It is anticipated that lessons from this study can be used to adapt the final protocol for RC3, which is focused on the provision of oral health prevention services (including fluoride varnish) by specially trained Al community oral health specialists working in Head Start Centers. There are implications for use with other clinical approaches to prevention as well. A major strength of this study is the extent to which involvement by representatives of the participant community, as well as Al health service providers, is shaping the development of materials and the design of the research protocol. This participation is expected to be a major asset for dissemination activities as well.

RC 1的目的是证明美国印第安人的幼儿龋齿（ECC）发病率 (Al)保留社区可以减少通过使用动机访谈（MI）改变 母亲口腔健康行为。具体目标是：（1）开展与文化相关的健康教育 和宣传材料，用于与Al社区一起预防ECC; 2）手册化口腔健康MI 孕妇/新生儿母亲的干预; 3）在随机试验中测试这种干预。 所有在北方大平原的诊所接受产前护理的15岁或以上的妇女 所有预约者，将被要求参加本试验，并将提供口腔健康促进 将利用社区参与战略开发的材料和辅助工具。示范 在试验中，大约600名妇女将被随机分配到MI组或对照组。为 对于M1组的患者，将在产前和出生后立即对其家庭进行口腔健康检查， 然后在6个月、12个月、24个月和36个月大时。儿童将被随访3年，龋齿评估将 在每个孩子的第一、第二和第三个生日的3个月内由校准的牙科医生进行。的 主要结果将是龋齿发病率的年增长率。次要结局指标将侧重于 龋齿模式和计划的成本效益。各种各样的调解员/主持人也将 包括母亲的口腔健康知识和信念，压力，自我效能感， 控制点AI/AN儿童未经治疗的蛀牙是普通人群儿童的3倍， 获得预防服务和专业牙科治疗的机会不足。这一决定是 不将临床/药理学方法与MI配对，以便提供对大多数患者的确定性测试。 普遍可用的预防策略-泰国，家庭口腔疾病预防行为。如果 可以证明MI预防ECC的有效性，未来的研究可能会考虑适应 社区实施。预计这项研究的经验教训可以用来调整最后的 RC 3的协议，其重点是提供口腔健康预防服务（包括氟化物 清漆）由受过专门训练的Al社区口腔健康专家在开端中心工作。有 这对其他临床预防方法的使用也有影响。这项研究的一个主要优点是， 参与社区代表以及Al保健服务的参与程度 供应商，正在塑造材料的开发和研究协议的设计。这 参与预计也是传播活动的一项重要资产。
