研究概览
简要总结
Subjects enrolled in this study are eligible for the seasonal influenza vaccine. The purpose of this research study is to figure out if increasing individuals' awareness of the benefits of herd immunity, specifically to the local pediatric oncology community, can improve vaccination uptake rates.
详细描述
The purpose of this study is to identify associations with influenza vaccine hesitancy, including parental demographics and altruism score, in families with healthy children attending two pediatric practices.
Also, in the cohort of families with baseline vaccine hesitancy, to assess the effectiveness of a pilot educational intervention focusing on the development of herd immunity for pediatric oncology patients by measuring:
- The change in vaccine hesitancy scores pre- and post-intervention.
- The rate of influenza vaccine uptake compared to historic controls from previous influenza seasons.
Another aim is to explore the relationship between baseline influenza vaccine hesitancy rates and baseline altruism scores. Effectiveness of this intervention is dependent on parental altruism levels; therefore, the study team also seeks to determine if there is an association between parental altruism and vaccine hesitancy for their children.
This is a single-arm prospective cohort study. The study will enroll legal guardians of children who are influenza vaccine-eligible to measure their vaccine hesitancy scores, altruism scores, and the impact of an educational intervention focused on herd immunity on the guardians' vaccine hesitancy score.

研究组 & 干预措施
Vaccine Hesitant
Subjects who consent to this study and deemed vaccine hesitant, they will receive an educational intervention.
干预措施: educational intervention (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Vaccine Hesitancy Scores Pre- and Post-Intervention.
时间窗: Baseline (Pre-intervention) and Post-Intervention, up to 4 hours
8-item Vaccine Hesitancy Scale. Subjects identified as vaccine-hesitant based on a Vaccine Hesitancy Score \>/= 3. Score range is 1-5 and \> or = 3 is considered vaccine hesitant.
Pre-Intervention Vaccine Hesitancy Score
时间窗: baseline
8-item Vaccine Hesitancy Scale. Subjects identified as vaccine-hesitant based on a Vaccine Hesitancy Score \>/= 3. Score range is 1-5 and \> or = 3 is considered vaccine hesitant.
Post-Intervention Vaccine Hesitancy Score
时间窗: Post-Intervention up to 4 Hours
8-item Vaccine Hesitancy Scale. Subjects identified as vaccine-hesitant based on a Vaccine Hesitancy Score \>/= 3. Score range is 1-5 and \> or = 3 is considered vaccine hesitant.
