Arkansas Children's Hospital Research Institute
This single-arm pilot study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a remotely delivered behavioral lifestyle intervention, adapted from the SmartMoms framework, to promote health gestational weight gain in pregnant women with overweight and obesity. Twelve to sixteen participants will receive weekly virtual motivational interview sessions with trained health coaches, review their daily weight data, step count, and continuous glucose monitoring data, and tailored guidance on physical activity and nutrition. Educational content will be delivered electronically, with peer support provided through a closed online group. A simulated (mock) control arm will be created post hoc from existing records for preliminary comparisons; all enrolled participants will receive the intervention.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of delivering a remotely administered behavioral lifestyle intervention for pregnant women with overweight and obesity, adapted from the established SmartMoms framework, using a simulated (mock) control arm for comparison. This pilot study will enroll approximately 12-16 participants and will focus on evaluating feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary signals of impact to inform a future randomized controlled trial. The intervention is tailored to the needs of women in Arkansas and aims to promote healthy gestational weight gain throu…
The formative phase (Phase I), classified as exempt by the institutional review board will seek participation from individuals meeting the following criteria: 1. Currently pregnant or pregnant within the past 36 months. 2. Community partners with relevant perspectives to inform recruitment, adaptation approaches and feasibility of the phase 2 pilot trial. Clinical Trial (Phase 2) Inclusion Criteria: * pregnant women less than 20 weeks of gestation at time of screening * 18-45 years of age * BMI of 25 - 40 kg/m-2 * Expecting a singleton pregnancy * Smartphone and/or reliable internet access…
The intervention we are basing our adaptations on is a ecological momentary intervention, meaning it is integrated into participants daily lifestyle and schedule. Using an established framework for tracking daily body weight and physical activity, a gestational weight gain trajectory is estimated. Based on the data, recommendation prompts for exercise and diet will be discussed with participants during motivational interviewing. For the CGM piece, participants will wear unblinded CGM devices and have access to CGM linked app features that allow insights and reactivity to personal glycemic data
