This study investigates the implementation and effectiveness of the Family Check-Up 4 Health (FCU4Health) intervention in primary care settings for reducing cardiovascular disease risk in children. Through a hybrid type 3 cluster randomized factorial trial and innovative technology-based strategies integrated with Electronic Health Records, the study aims to enhance intervention fidelity and engagement. Results will inform scalable approaches to promote child and family health behaviors, improve parenting skills, and potentially reduce child BMI, contributing to significant public health impacts in addressing cardiovascular health disparities.
The proposed implementation trial is a hybrid effectiveness-implementation type III design, with a primary focus on implementation strategies and outcomes. Eligible families include children aged 2-17 who are patients at Denova Integrated Healthcare. All families (n = 900-1200) will receive FCU4Health services from a Denova staff member trained in the intervention and supervised by FCU4Health experts. Following guidance from the ongoing Community Advisory Board, investigator's previous trials, and Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (RE-AIM) framework, implementation barriers were identified to scale-up and implementation strategies adopted for the trial: Lyssn fidelity support and Short Message Service (SMS) text messaging to promote program engagement.
Randomization to these strategies will occur at the care team level (n = 11-12) using a factorial design. Parent/caregivers and children at least 6 years of age will complete assessments at baseline, 6 months, 12 months, and 18 months.
Primary outcomes are fidelity and engagement (Aim 1a) and child health behaviors (Aim 1b). Investigators will also examine secondary outcomes including family health routines and parenting; conduct economic analyses (Aim 2); and examine the link between trajectories of improvement in health behaviors and improvements in BMI for subgroups related to baseline BMI, child developmental age group, race/ethnicity, language, and gender (Aim 3).

| Lyssn Fidelity Ratings | Co-primary outcome of Aim 1: Fidelity to the motivational interviewing (MI) skills that are central to Family Check-Up 4 Health effects using the Lyssn automated coding platform. The system has been shown to be competitive with human coding using the Motivational Interviewing Skill Code (MISC) and the Motivational Interviewing Treatment Integrity Code (MITI 4). The Lyssn fidelity rating system consists of three dimensions: acceptance, empathy, and spirit, scored on a 7-point Likert scale. (1=low rating, 4=mid rating, 7=high rating). Lyssn scores are also convergent with human codings on the COACH observational rating system (see next measure). | Up to 36 months |
| Engagement in Family Check Up 4 Health (FCU4Health) (in-session caregiver engagement) | Co-primary outcome of Aim 1: COACH rating system Parent In-Session Engagement Domain, 1-9 scale (1=low, 5=moderate, 9=high). Reliable and validly predictive of intervention outcomes. | Up to 36 months |
| Budget impact of implementation | Co-Primary outcome of Aim 2: Cost capture survey based on time-driven activity-based costing methods and data from FCU4Health services provided. | Up to 48 months |
| Cost-effectiveness of FCU4Health | Co-Primary outcome of Aim 2: Cost-effectiveness analysis using incremental cost-effectiveness ratios will be used to determine the value of each strategy as it relates to child BMI change and to implementation outcomes known to be related to intervention effects (e.g., fidelity). Data obtained via Cost capture survey based on time-driven activity-based costing methods and data from FCU4Health services provided. | Up to 48 months |
| Child Health Behaviors: Dietary Screener Questionnaire | Primary outcome of Aim 1b and Aim 3: National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey's Dietary Screener Questionnaire: 6 questions collect intake frequency of food (fruits, vegetables, fast food) and beverage choices (regular soda, 100 percent fruit juice, or sweetened fruit drinks, sports drinks, or energy drinks) during the past month. (i.e. During the past month, how often did you drink regular soda that contains sugar? Frequency of choices within past 2 weeks). The Dietary Screener Questionnaire has been shown to be a low burden food recall screener for specific dietary factors. This scale was administered in investigator's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funded trial and had good psychometrics as demonstrated using confirmatory factor analysis. Values range from 0-8. Never=0, 5-6 times per week=4, 6+per day=8. For food items, higher scores indicate healthier behaviors. For the beverage choices, lower scores indicate healthier behaviors. |

We will test the hypotheses related to implementation strategies at α=.025 to control the family-wise type I error rate at 0.05: (1) mean difference in fidelity in favor of those randomized to the fidelity support condition (including Lyssn, COACH coding, and group supervision), (2) higher engagement for those randomized to SMS. Each hypothesis will be tested under the framework of a linear mixed-effects model to account for care team, FCU4Health Coordinator, and family-level clustering. In addition to the main, each model will include random effects for care team and Coordinator, and covariates used in the restricted randomization. Updated power analyses were performed by simulation assuming 80% complete data for Lyssn and COACH scores (fidelity strategy) and 95% data available on SMS text messaging (i.e., allowing for up to a very conservative 5% opt-out rate).

| Family Check-Up 4 Health (FCU4Health) | Behavioral | An evidence-based, data-driven, individually tailored parenting intervention with evidence of effectiveness on child and family health behaviors and psychosocial well-being. The program includes three components: 1) a comprehensive family assessment, 2) feedback and motivation session, and 3) individually tailored follow-up support (including parent training modules from the Everyday Parenting curriculum and connection with community resources). Dosage and content of these follow-up sessions are driven by the results of the assessment and family interest. The assessment, feedback and motivation session, and follow-up support are repeated annually. |
