Weight Across the Pregnancy and Postpartum Period
common.study.values.description
“Promoting Healthy Weight Across the Pregnancy and Postpartum Period”
This project evaluates the effectiveness of an evidence-based intervention (HEALTH-P2) to prevent excessive weight gain from pregnancy through 12 months postpartum when disseminated and implemented in real-world settings, through Parents as Teachers. To enhance the impact of HEALTH-P2, the study also evaluates implementation outcomes from the training curriculum (implementation strategy) and external validity when HEALTH-P2 is implemented within this national home visiting organization. This partnership has potential for significant impact on obesity and chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
