Workshop vs. leaflet: which better prepares parents for baby choking emergencies?
NCT ID NCT07567638
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compared two ways of teaching parents and caregivers of infants under 6 months how to respond if their baby chokes. One group got a simple information sheet, the other attended a practical workshop. The goal was to see which method improved knowledge and confidence more. Sixty-three caregivers from three health centers in Spain took part.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could show that practical workshops are better than leaflets for teaching parents how to help a choking baby.
- What could go wrong
