简要总结
Vaccine preventable infections are a serious complication following pediatric solid organ transplant. Immunizations are a minimally invasive and cost-effective was to reduce these infections. Despite the importance of pre-transplant vaccination, the majority of pediatric solid organ transplant recipients are not up-to-date on age-appropriate immunizations at the time of transplant. The goal of this study is to pilot a novel health information technology immunization tool to improve immunization rates in pediatric solid organ transplant candidates.
详细描述
Triads of parents, primary care physicians, and transplant sub-specialists will be enrolled to use a pre-transplant immunization tool while their child awaits transplant. The tool will provide information about vaccines, information about vaccine-preventable infections in the transplant population, a central easily accessible vaccine record, and a communication portal. The tool will also send vaccine reminders when vaccinations are due. The investigators will assess 1) the effectiveness of the tool in improving pre-transplant immunization rates, 2) the acceptability of the tool to users and 3) the feasibility of the tool.

结局指标
主要结局
Effectiveness of Transplant Immunization Tool, as measured by number of patients with up-to-date vaccinations
时间窗: Date of transplantation (up to 3 years post-enrollment)
We will assess whether the novel immunization tool improves pre-transplant vaccination rates. The number of participants who are up to date with vaccinations will be reported.
次要结局
- Acceptability and Feasibility of the Transplant Immunization Tool, as assessed by a questionnaire(Date of transplantation (up to 3 years post-enrollment))
