Feasibility and acceptability of the Alarm Distress Baby Scale (ADBB) in universal health visiting practice in England: a mixed-methods study using Normalisation Process Theory
The ADBB/m-ADBB was perceived to have enhanced the health visitors' skills and knowledge in infant observation. The m-ADBB required minimal additional time and was highly acceptable to health visitors. These findings have significant implications for health visiting practice and future research.
