Impact of Standing Orders Optimization

Not Applicable
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Human Papilloma Virus
Registration Number
NCT05742386
Lead Sponsor
UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center
Brief Summary

This trial will look at the impact of optimizing human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine standing orders. The research team will work with primary care clinics. Some clinics will receive communication training. Other clinics will receive the same training and tools for increasing the use of their standing orders.

Detailed Description

The researchers will conduct a cluster randomized clinical trial. The trial will look at the impact of optimizing HPV vaccine standing orders. The recruitment goal for the trial is 34 clinics in healthcare systems, including 9 rural-serving clinics. The researchers will randomize clinics using simple randomization (1:1). Some clinics will receive a communication training. Other clinics will receive a communication training and tools for optimizing the use of their standing orders. The researchers will use medical record data to compare changes in HPV vaccination among children ages 9-12. Clinics will be followed for 24 months. The researchers will also use survey data to compare HPV vaccine communication and implementation of standing orders among clinical staff. The study will engage clinical staff. Researchers will not have direct contact with children or their families.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
HPV vaccination (≥1 dose), 9-12 year oldsfrom baseline to 12 months

Proportion of unvaccinated children who initiate the HPV vaccine series between baseline and 12-month follow-up, among those who were ages 9-12 at baseline.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Standing orders attitude ratingup to 6 months

Positive attitude toward using HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating more positive attitudes.

Standing orders norms ratingup to 6 months

Norms in favor of using HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating more supportive norms.

Standing orders self-efficacy ratingup to 6 months

Confidence about using HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating higher confidence.

HPV vaccination (≥1 dose), 9-12 year oldsfrom 13 months to 24 months

Proportion of unvaccinated children who initiate the HPV vaccine series between 13- and 24-month follow-up, among those who were ages 9-12 at 13 months.

HPV vaccination (≥2 doses), 9-12 year oldsfrom 13 months to 24 months

Proportion of unvaccinated children who complete the HPV vaccine series between 13- and 24-month follow-up, among those who were ages 9-12 at 13 months.

Standing orders appropriateness ratingup to 6 months

Appropriateness of HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating greater appropriateness.

Recommendation self-efficacy ratingup to 6 months

Confidence in recommending HPV vaccine for children ages 9 or 10 will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating higher recommendation confidence.

Recommendation intentions ratingup to 6 months

Intentions to recommend HPV vaccine for children ages 9 or 10 will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating higher recommendation intentions.

Standing orders adoption ratingup to 6 months

Adoption of HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating greater adoption.

Standing orders acceptability ratingup to 6 months

Acceptability of HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating higher acceptability.

Standing orders role ratingup to 6 months

Understanding of role under HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating better understanding of role.

Standing orders sustainability ratingup to 6 months

Sustainability of HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating greater sustainability.

Estimated time spent on recommendationsup to 6 months

Time spent on HPV vaccine recommendations will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 0-99 minutes, with higher values indicating more time spent.

Estimated recommendation frequency, 9-10 year oldsup to 6 months

Frequency of recommending HPV vaccine for children ages 9 or 10 will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating more frequent recommendations.

Standing orders feasibility ratingup to 6 months

Feasibility of HPV vaccine standing orders will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating greater feasibility.

Recommendation attitudes ratingup to 6 months

Positive attitudes toward recommending HPV vaccine for ages children ages 9 or 10 years will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating more positive recommendation attitudes.

Recommendation norms ratingup to 6 months

Norms in favor of recommending HPV vaccine for children ages 9 or 10 will be measured by one item on the survey, taken by clinical staff two months after attending the AAT. The range for this measure will be 1 to 5, with higher values indicating more supportive norms.

Estimated recommendation frequency, 11-12 year oldsup to 6 months
