The knowledge gained from this study can help to prioritize future PVH intervention efforts and enhance effectiveness among emerging approaches, along with informing how stakeholders may improve consumer awareness, adoption, and rates of correct usages. Based on our findings, this paper will inform ways to bolster caregivers' engagement with behavioral approaches and simultaneous use of effective and accessible technological interventions.
