NCT ID NCT07023367
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a Parent Navigator Program (PNP) helps Latino/x families of babies with congenital heart disease get connected to developmental follow-up services. Forty families will be randomly assigned to either receive support from a parent with lived experience or standard care. Researchers will measure clinic visits, child development scores, and parental stress at 6 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Parent Navigator Program (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that connecting families with a trained parent mentor improves access to early developmental care and lowers parental stress.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 40 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The program may not significantly improve outcomes compared to standard care.
