Exploring Behavioral Interventions to Enhance Adherence to Multiple Micronutrient Supplementation Among Pregnant Women in Cambodia: A Mixed-Methods Study
This study provided insights into Cambodian women's preferences and experiences with three distinct interventions designed to improve adherence over a short-term, 3-week exposure period per intervention. An integrated, multilevel approach that combines family-focused, educational, and system-level strategies is recommended for further piloting and scale-up, with longer-term studies needed to assess comparative efficacy for adherence and health outcomes.
