研究概览
简要总结
This study is being done to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary impact of a meal delivery intervention designed to improve diet quality and promote appropriate gestational weight gain among predominantly Black and low-income pregnant women with overweight or obesity. This will be done by 1) assessing the feasibility and acceptability of the meal delivery intervention; 2) investigating changes in patient-reported diet quality, barriers to healthy eating, and food security; and 3) exploring the preliminary impact of the meal delivery intervention on gestational weight gain and blood pressure and estimate the effect size of the intervention relative to a de-identified non-randomized control group that will be derived from de-identified hospital records.
详细描述
Subjects will receive 10 home-delivered meals per week from about 20 weeks gestation until 40 weeks gestation.
