Brief summary (registry, in English)
Lifestyle, activity, and feeding behaviours during early childhood set the foundation for subsequent lifelong metabolic health as an adult. The investigators have developed a digital tool, called Feeding, Lifestyle, Activity Goals (FLAGs) to assess lifestyle and feeding behaviours of young infants, simultaneously providing guidance and tailored advice for parents on ideal practices specific to their children. The investigators aim to assess its usability, acceptability, and feasibility , before proceeding to determine efficacy of the FLAGs intervention through conducting a randomized controlled trial, enrolling 440 infants from KK Women's and Children's Hospital. Half of them will receive standard routine infant care, whereas the other half will additionally receive the digital FLAGs assessment and advisory tool, complete with mobile nudges. The follow-up period will be over 12 months, with the main outcomes being i) indicators of good feeding and lifestyle behaviour at 12 months old, and ii) physical growth trends, body fat proportions. Demonstrating the benefits of using FLAGs will underscore the importance of integrating this digitalized tool into the screening and evaluation of well children, with the potential to be upscaled and adopted across hospitals, primary care, and community-based health programmes.
