简要总结
Greater efforts are needed to bring affordable, clean stoves and adaptive behavioral strategies to the millions of households worldwide that continue to burn solid cooking fuels using inefficient stoves. Two of the leading causes of infant mortality, preterm birth and pneumonia, are associated with high exposures to household air pollution during pregnancy and early infancy. The proposed study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of an introduced liquid petroleum gas stove, complemented by two alternative approaches to delivering tailored behavioral change interventions, among pregnant women and their neonates.

研究组 & 干预措施
Phase 1
In Phase I, 25 pregnant women will receive a low-cost gas stove and will be taught by peer educators in group classes how to safely use gas stoves and how to reduce exposure to air pollution.
干预措施: Low-cost gas stove (Other)

干预措施: Peer education classes (Behavioral)
Phase 2
In Phase 2, the investigators will assess a more resource-intensive behavioral intervention approach with a different group of 25 women who will follow the same study procedures described in Phase I.
