| This session looks at maternal health and behaviors, child health, and epidemiologic modeling. The efficacy of electronically disseminated health education materials will be compared to that of mailed health education materials. Scheduled presentations include: the effects of breastfeeding on health services utilization for infants, maternal tobacco and alcohol use as a risk factor for febrile convulsion during pregnancy, using multiple outcome analysis to simultaneously investigate the associations between smoking during pregnancy and low birth weight, preterm, and small for gestational age newborns, and developing a model to assess the gap in preterm birth between African Americans and white Americans. | |||
| Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of the session, the participant (learner) in this session will be able to: 1. Identify ways to effectively reach families with young children. 2. To examine the effects of breastfeeding on health services utilization in Hong Kong Chinese infants. 3. Recognize the association between maternal smoking and/or drinking and febrile convulsion 4. Learn how generalized estimating equations (GEE) can be used in the simultaneous analysis of correlated pregnancy outcomes. 5. To understand the barriers in studying gaps in preterm birth. | |||
