简要总结
To date, there have been no interventional studies aimed at increasing HPV vaccination rates by making use of digital and involving all stakeholders within this process: nurses, physicians, caregivers, parents, and children/adolescents according to the PPI principle.
The primary objective of the project is to identify the effectiveness of a digital educational intervention, conducted by a multidisciplinary healthcare team and targeting adolescents of both sexes in secondary schools. The outcome measures will be: engagement, increased knowledge and self-efficacy, and vaccination uptake.
This project will identify new models for addressing public health needs. The secondary aim is to evaluate parents' attitudes toward vaccination pre- and post-intervention education.
A quasi-experimental, pre-post educational intervention study will be conducted by adopting a convenience sampling will be adopted at secondary schools in Bari (Puglia, Italy).
详细描述
The study will be carried out in a multiphasic mode. All steps are described below.
- First Phase (T0): the Community Nurses (CN) will send, via e-mail to all parents, a questionnaire aimed at investigating their children's vaccination status, hesitation to vaccination, sources of information, and information needs about vaccination. Then, upon prior arrangement with the school Principal, the CN will, in-person, distribute a questionnaire to all participating students to explore adolescents' knowledge about HPV vaccination, their involvement in vaccine decision-making, their feelings, and perceived self-efficacy.
- Second Phase (T1): the CN, after analyzing all the responses from the questionnaires administered to both parents (to investigate hesitations to vaccination) and students (on students' knowledge, involvement, feelings, self-efficacy), will set up an educational intervention, involving the members of expert (nurses and physicians' experts in public health).
Description of the educational intervention
The educational intervention will be provided (at T1) in two ways:
(I) a video lecture in e-learning mode lasting about an hour, aimed at adolescents, using the School Institute's platform for distance education, using audiovisual systems and slide presentations in Power Point format; learner-learner interactions will be possible through e-mail messages, real-time individual chats and asynchronous discussion forum conversations including comment sections.. The event will be recorded so that both adolescents and parents can access it at their convenience.
