To describe the acceptability of an interactive computer kiosk that provides environmental health education to low-income Latina prenatal patients.
A mixed-methods approach was used to assess the acceptability of the Prenatal Environmental Health Kiosk pregnant Latina women in Salinas, CA (n=152). The kiosk is a low literacy, interactive touch-screen computer program with an audio component and includes graphics and an interactive game.
The majority had never used a kiosk before. Over 90% of women reported that they learned something new while using the kiosk. Prior to using the kiosk, 22% of women reported their preference of receiving health education from a kiosk over a pamphlet or video compared with 57% after using the kiosk (p<0.01). Qualitative data revealed: (1) benefit of exposure to computer use; (2) reinforcing strategy of health education; and (3) popularity of the interactive game.
The Prenatal Environmental Health Kiosk is an innovative patient health education modality that was shown to be acceptable among a population of low-income Latino pregnant women in a prenatal care clinic.
This pilot study demonstrated that a health education kiosk was an acceptable strategy for providing Latina prenatal patients with information on pertinent environmental exposures.
描述一种为低收入拉丁裔产前患者提供环境卫生教育的交互式电脑亭的可接受性。
采用混合方法评估加利福尼亚州萨利纳斯市的拉丁裔孕妇（n = 152）对产前环境卫生亭的可接受性。该亭是一个低识字要求的交互式触摸屏电脑程序，带有音频组件，包括图形和一个交互式游戏。
大多数人以前从未使用过电脑亭。超过90%的女性报告称，她们在使用电脑亭时学到了新东西。在使用电脑亭之前，22%的女性表示比起宣传册或视频，她们更倾向于通过电脑亭接受健康教育，而在使用电脑亭之后这一比例为57%（p<0.01）。定性数据显示：（1）接触电脑使用的益处；（2）健康教育的强化策略；（3）交互式游戏的受欢迎程度。
产前环境卫生亭是一种创新的患者健康教育方式，在产前护理诊所的低收入拉丁裔孕妇群体中被证明是可接受的。
这项试点研究表明，健康教育亭是向拉丁裔产前患者提供有关相关环境暴露信息的一种可接受的策略。
