The Choosing Healthy Eating for Infant Health (CHErIsH) intervention is a complex infant feeding intervention delivered at infant vaccination visits, alongside a healthcare professional (HCP) level implementation strategy to support delivery. The primary aim of CHErIsH pilot feasibility study is to collect and examine data on the acceptability and feasibility of the delivery of the brief infant-feeding intervention by HCPs to parents at child vaccination visits, and the strategy to support the implementation of this intervention in primary care for HCPs. Furthermore, half of all potential participants will be invited to provide maternal and infant biomarkers and/or take part in SWAT (study within a trial) which includes questions about infant feeding that were put together as part of a Core Outcome Set. These questions are important as they give a better understanding about what works and what doesn't. This will facilitate the refinement of the intervention and its implementation strategy, and inform the next step of the CHErIsH study, such as a definitive trial.
The Choosing Healthy Eating for Infant Health (CHErIsH) intervention is a non-randomised feasibility study of an infant feeding intervention and implementation strategy, with embedded process evaluation and economic evaluation.
The CHErIsH feasibility study will address the following research questions:

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infant feeding intervention | Experimental | The intervention will be delivered to parents by practice nurses and/or GPs in MPHC at each of the vaccination visits, prior to administration of the vaccination. These vaccination visits take place at 2, 4, 6, 12 and 13 months. This intervention consists of 1) verbally delivered pre-specified infant feeding messages, and 2) provision of additional infant-feeding resources including an information leaflet, a magnet, an infant bib and access to an informational website. |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Infant feeding | Behavioral | Verbally delivered pre-specified infant feeding message. The messages focus on appropriate milk feeding and establishing complementary feeding and solid food introduction in relation to timing and practical guidance around processes of feeding and provision of additional infant-feeding resources including information leaflet, a magnet, an infant bib and access to an informational website. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Parent intervention feedback | Four-item measures of implementation outcomes including Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM), Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM) will be used together to assess the acceptability, appropriateness and feasibility of the parent-level intervention (following intervention cessation). Scale values range from 1 to 5. 1 = completely disagree and 5 completely agree. | Tp3= at infant's 13 month vaccination visit. |
| Healthcare professional intervention feedback | Four-item measures of implementation outcomes including Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM), Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM) will be used together to assess the acceptability, appropriateness and feasibility of the parent-level intervention (following intervention cessation). Scale values range from 1 to 5. 1 = completely disagree and 5 completely agree. | Tp3= at infant's 13 month vaccination visit. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Intervention reach and recruitment | Number of invitations sent to parents, acceptances to participate, and refusals | Tp1= baseline, prior to infant's 2-month vaccination visit; Tp2= by the infant's 6-month vaccination visit); Tp3= at infant's 13 month vaccination visit. |
| Appropriateness of parent data collection processes and outcome measures |
