Developing an intervention to improve infant safety and well-being 

This work will investigate potential interventions related to improving infant safe sleep uptake among families at higher risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

CACH Team: Dr Anna Pease, Professor Peter Blair, Dr Jenny Ingram and Professor Peter Fleming.

Using a coproductive approach, the project will work with key stakeholders to develop an intervention that can be tested under trial conditions. Surveys, interviews and focus groups with families, health professionals and commissioners will explore interventions that aim to improve uptake of safe sleep advice while supporting families with sleep related advice. Inspiration from international approached including Finnish baby boxes, PepipodTM and Wahakura from New Zealand will help to develop an intervention with broad appeal but targeted effects for those babies most at risk.
