What this trial studies

This project addresses intimate partner violence (IPV) against pregnant women in China, a vulnerable population that has been largely underserved. It adapts the Domestic Violence Enhanced Home Visitation Program (DOVE) from the United States to the Chinese context, aiming to educate and empower women about IPV and improve maternal and infant health. The study will test the feasibility and acceptability of this intervention in two perinatal clinics, using a randomized control design to assess its impact on reducing IPV and enhancing health outcomes.
