The Canadian Healthy Life Trajectories Initiative (HeLTI) Trial: a study protocol for monitoring fidelity of a preconception-lifestyle behaviour intervention.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In evaluating technology-based behaviour change interventions, it is increasingly important to have a monitoring plan for intervention fidelity. It is important to maintain intervention fidelity to ensure that the theory-based intervention that is being tested is what causes the observed changes, particularly for eHealth behaviour change interventions. In this protocol, we outline the intervention fidelity and monitoring protocol for Healthy Life Trajectory Initiative (HeLTI) Canada, a randomized controlled trial evaluating the effect of a preconception-early childhood technology-based intervention delivered by public health nurses among pregnancy-planning women and their partners to optimize child growth and development.

Methods
