OBJECTIVE: The Cholera-Hospital-Based Intervention for 7-days (CHoBI7) mobile health (mHealth) program delivers mobile messages to diarrhoea patient households promoting water treatment and handwashing with soap. The randomised controlled trial (RCT) of the CHoBI7 mHealth program demonstrated this intervention was effective in significantly reducing diarrhoea and stunting amoung young children. The objective of this study was to assess the implementation of the CHoBI7 mHealth program in delivering mHealth messages during this RCT. METHODS: 517 diarrhoea patient households with 1777 participants received weekly text, voice and interactive voice response (IVR) messages from the CHoBI7 mHealth program over the 12-month program period. The program process evaluation indicators were the following: the percentage of CHoBI7 mHealth messages received and fully listened to by program households (program fidelity and dose), and household members reporting receiving and sharing an mHealth message from the program in the past two weeks (program reach). RESULTS: Ninety two percent of text messages were received by program households. Eighty three percent of voice and 86% of IVR messages sent were fully listened to by at least one household member. Eighty one percent of IVR quiz responses from households were answered correctly. Program households reported receiving a CHoBI7 mHealth message in the past two weeks at 79% of monthly household visits during the 12-month program. Seventy seven percent of participants reported sharing a program message with a spouse, 55% with a neighbour and 49% with a child during the program period. CONCLUSION: There was high fidelity, dose and reach of mobile messages delivered for the CHoBI7 mHealth program. This study presents an approach for process evaluation that can be implemented to evaluate future mHealth programs.
目的:霍乱基于医院的 7 天干预(CHoBI7)移动健康(mHealth)计划向腹泻患者家庭发送移动信息,宣传水疗和用肥皂洗手。CHoBI7 mHealth 计划的随机对照试验(RCT)表明,该干预措施可有效显著降低腹泻和儿童发育迟缓。本研究的目的是评估 CHoBI7 mHealth 计划在 RCT 期间传递 mHealth 信息的实施情况。
方法:在 12 个月的项目期间,517 户腹泻患者家庭的 1777 名参与者收到了来自 CHoBI7 mHealth 计划的每周短信、语音和交互式语音应答(IVR)信息。该计划的过程评估指标如下:计划家庭收到和完全听取 CHoBI7 mHealth 信息的百分比(计划的保真度和剂量),以及家庭报告在过去两周内收到和分享来自该计划的 mHealth 信息的百分比(计划的覆盖率)。
结果:92%的短信被项目家庭接收。83%的语音和 86%的 IVR 消息至少被一名家庭成员完全听取。81%的 IVR 测验回答来自家庭的回答都是正确的。在 12 个月的项目期间,有 79%的月度家访报告家庭在过去两周内收到了 CHoBI7 mHealth 消息。77%的参与者报告在项目期间与配偶分享了一条计划信息,55%与邻居分享,49%与孩子分享。
结论:CHoBI7 mHealth 计划传递的移动信息具有高度的保真度、剂量和覆盖范围。本研究提出了一种可用于评估未来 mHealth 计划的过程评估方法。
