Brief Summary:
Screen women of childbearing age (15 - 44 years) for high risk drinking in antenatal clinics of the established research sites in the Western Cape Province of South Africa (SA). While there are multiple reasons for this screening, the purpose is for selective (secondary) prevention of FASD. A.) Initiate a case control trial/efficacy study (n=400) of the use of one-session brief motivation enhancement therapy (MET) in busy public health settings (versus information only) in these rich research sites where very high rates of FASD have been documented over the entirety of the past two decades. B.) These targeted prevention activities follow both findings and staff experience in prevention over the past decade which indicate that the most likely venue for prevention activities is in antenatal clinics of the local, primary care clinics and hospitals. These activities will also provide tangible community-level pay back for participation in ongoing research activities and lay the groundwork for sustainable services going forward.
Detailed Description:
The purpose of the research is to find out if Motivational Enhancement Therapy is more effective than printed information alone (Informational pamphlets only) in helping women reduce their risk of giving birth to children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) at Primary Health Care Facilities, in addition to evaluation individuals for risky health behaviors by having them complete brief screening questionnaires that give them information of how much risk they might be facing from their alcohol or other drug use. When a pregnant mother drinks alcohol, she puts her baby at risk. FASD is a group of growth, mental, and physical problems that may occur in a baby when a mother drinks alcohol during pregnancy.
