Providing an Optimized and emPowered Pregnancy for You (P<sup>3</sup>OPPY) Acceptability and Feasibility Pilot Trial

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to assess the feasibility and acceptability of a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluating digital health interventions (DHI) and community health worker (CHW) programs for non-Hispanic Black pregnant women in socioeconomically deprived areas. They successfully recruited 40 participants, who reported high satisfaction with both interventions, suggesting that these approaches could be viable for improving perinatal outcomes in high-risk populations. The findings support the need for a larger RCT to evaluate clinical outcomes.
