Summary

This completed trial tested a web-based training program called Comadres Saludables for community health workers (promotoras) who serve Hispanic women. 160 female health workers were randomly assigned to either the new online training or a standard government training. The goal was to see if the new program increased their confidence and knowledge to deliver obesity prevention programs. Researchers measured changes in self-efficacy and knowledge at 3 and 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
Comadres Saludables web-based training program
What this could lead to
If successful, this training could help community health workers better support Hispanic women in adopting healthier lifestyles, potentially reducing obesity rates.
What could go wrong
This is a completed early-stage study measuring self-efficacy and knowledge, not actual weight outcomes. Results may not translate to real-world behavior change or long-term health improvements.
