Well-Child Care Clinical Practice Redesign: A Parent Coach-Led Model of Care
NCT03797898 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Parent-focused Redesign for Encounters, Newborns to Toddlers (PARENT) is a team-based approach to care using a health educator ("Parent Coach") to provide the bulk of WCC services, address specific needs faced by families in low-income communities, and decrease reliance on the clinician as the primary provider of WCC services. The Parent Coach provides anticipatory guidance, psychosocial and social needs screening/referral, and developmental and behavioral surveillance, screening, and guidance at each WCC visit, and is supported by parent-focused pre-visit screening and visit prioritization, a brief, problem-focused clinician encounter for a physical exam and any concerns that require a clinician's attention, and an automated text message parent reminder and education service for periodic, age-specific messages to reinforce key health-related information recommended by Bright Futures national guidelines. The investigators will conduct a cluster RCT of PARENT to determine its effects on quality, utilization, and clinician efficiency, and its cost/cost-offset.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT03797898
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT03797898 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 937 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Seattle Children's Hospital, which has 127 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Health Promotion appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Parent Coach is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT03797898 reports 2 study locations spanning 2 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include California, Washington. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
