Providing an Optimized and Empowered Pregnancy for You (POPPY) Aim 3: Randomized Controlled Trial
Sponsor: University of Alabama at Birmingham
Summary
The PᵌOPPY study is designed to support the American Heart Association's mission to improve maternal/infant health outcomes and address inequities in maternal/infant health care. The P3OPPY Project is one of five projects within the American Heart Association P3 EQUATE Network. The overarching goal of the P3 EQUATE American Heart Association Health Equity Research Network (HERN) is to promote equity in Maternal and Infant Health outcomes by identifying innovative and cost-effective strategies to enhance access to quality health information, care, and experiences during pregnancy, postnatal and postpartum/preconception periods, particularly for Black and under-served populations. Collectively, the investigators will collaborate with pregnant and postpartum individuals and their families, hospitals, and communities to discover ways to reduce racism and social problems that contribute to poor health outcomes. In this trial, 400 non-Hispanic Black participants will be randomized to see if 2 promising interventions (digital health interventions and community health workers) reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes.
