Community Mobilization for Improved Clean Cookstove Uptake, Household Air Pollution Reduction, and Hypertension Prevention (NCT05048147)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Using a focused implementation research framework, the EPIS (Exploration, Preparation, Implementation and Sustainment) model in a type-2 hybrid design, the study will be conducted in 3 phases: 1) A pre-implementation phase that will use the Exploration and Preparation domains of EPIS to: a) explore barriers and facilitators of Clean Fuel- Clean- Stove (CF-CS) use, and b) develop a culturally-tailored CM strategy for CF-CS use; 2) An Implementation phase that will use the Implementation domain of EPIS to compare in a cluster RCT of 32 peri-urban communities (640 households), the effect of CM vs. a self-directed condition (i.e. receipt of information on CF-CS use without CM) on adoption of CF-CS use; and systolic BP reduction; 3) A post-implementation phase that will use the Sustainment domain of EPIS to evaluate the effect of CM strategy vs. self-directed condition on sustainability of the CF-CS use in 640 households across the randomly assigned 32 peri-urban communities in Nigeria. The Lagos State University College of Medicine (LASUCOM) working with the MOH will oversee research coordination in Nigeria.
