description | Communities of color experience higher maternal and infant mortality, as well as a host of other adverse outcomes, during pregnancy and postpartum. To address this, our team is developing a free, user-friendly, question-answering chatbot called Rosie. Chatbots have gained significant popularity due to their scalability and success in individualizing resources. In recent years, scientific communities and researchers have started recognizing this technology's potential to inform communities, promote health outcomes, and address health disparities. The development of Rosie is an interdisciplinary project, with teams focused on the technical build of the application (app), the development of machine learning models, and community outreach, making Rosie a chatbot built with the input from the communities it aims to serve. From June to October 2022, more than 20 demonstration sessions were conducted in Washington, District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia, where a total of 109 pregnant women and new mothers of color could interact with Rosie. Results from the live demonstrations showed that 75% of mothers searched for maternity and baby-related information at least once a week and more than 90% of participants expressed the likelihood to use the app. Most of the participants inquired about their baby's development, nutrition for babies, and identifying and addressing the causes of certain symptoms and conditions, accounting for about 80% of the total questions asked. Mother-related questions in the community demonstrations were mainly about pregnancy. The high level of interest in the chatbot is a clear indication of the need for more resources. Rosie aims to help close the racial gap in maternal and infant health disparities by providing new mothers with easy access to reliable health information. |
