Randomized Controlled TrialA randomized controlled trial of a video module to increase U.S. poison center use by low-income parents.
U.S. poison centers decrease medical visits by providing telephone advice for home management of potential poisonings, but are underutilized by low-income African-American and Latino parents, and those with limited English proficiency, due to lack of knowledge and misconceptions about poison centers. ⋯ This video module, when presented by a community organization's instructors, was highly effective in improving knowledge, behavior, and behavioral intention concerning use of poison centers within a low-income, language-diverse population.
