Reach And Teach: Translating " Mind Over Matter: Healthy Bowels, Healthy Bladder" For Digital Delivery
11/01/2018 - 03/31/2020
Sponsor: ICTR Dissemination and Implementation Research Award
Status: Ongoing
This project will use participatory ergonomics to adapt Mind Over Matter, Healthy Bowels, Healthy Bladder (MOM), an evidence-based in-person health promotion program, to an electronic program, https://www.healthybowelandbladder.org/. Our primary objective is to compare eMOM’s reach when implemented by community agencies versus via mass media; we will also gather preliminary data on effectiveness using a type 3 hybrid study design. Expected outcomes include an electronic continence promotion program with a high likelihood of effectiveness; and information about which implementation strategies maximize the reach and impact of eHealth interventions for older women, to support a highly competitive D&I grant application submission.
