About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for COVID-19 Vaccination focused on measuring Vaccination hesitancy

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Practice site inclusion criteria Pediatric or family practice clinic that serves pediatric population (ages 5 to 17) Affiliated with UMass Memorial Health Care and/or Baystate Health Serve a patient population that is at least 30% racial/ethnic minority group members. Inclusion Criteria for Parents: The following inclusion criteria will be applied to parents (on behalf of their children): Parent/guardian (referred to as parents in this proposal) of child between ages 5 and 17 Able to read and write in English, Spanish, Portuguese or Vietnamese, which are the predominant languages in the target communities Parent of patient at participating clinical site/child received non-urgent care visit during study period Child not up-to-date for COVID-19 per current CDC guidelines at the time of enrollment.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

COVID-19 vaccine intention
Parent exit survey in clinics: Parents will report their intention to vaccinate their children for COVID-19. See survey question below: "Did you decide to vaccinate your child against COVID-19 today? Yes/No"

Secondary Outcome Measures

Feasibility: Recruitment
Completion of the parent exit surveys will be documented and used to calculate the percentage of eligible parents (those who received a form) who completed the survey.
Feasibility: Data Completeness
Data completeness/missing data for all participant-level measures from the parent exit survey at the item-level will be examined. An exploratory analysis will be conducted to further decipher the quality of COVID-19 vaccination data in electronic medical records to determine its potential utility in a future trial.
Feasibility: Randomization
Recruitment, data completion and participant characteristics will be compared across the two study conditions to determine if differences emerge.
Acceptability: Parents
Perceived acceptability will be assessed via the survey question "How satisfied were you with the conversations about COVID-19 vaccination for your child at your visit today", which will have a 3-point Likert response scale, ranging from not at all to very satisfied.
Perceived appropriateness: Parents
Perceived appropriateness will be assessed via the survey question "How appropriate were the conversations about COVID-19 vaccination for your child at your visit today?"
Implementation Fidelity
Implementation fidelity will be assessed by three questions that ask about provider's behavior regarding the intervention: "Did you and the provider discuss COVID-19 vaccination for your child today?"; "Did the provider share their own COVID-19 experience with you?"; and "Did the doctor give you any materials about the COVID-19 vaccination today?".
Acceptability: Providers and clinic staff
Will be assessed qualitatively through semi-structured interviews using questions like "How satisfied were you with intervention activities?"
Perceived Appropriateness: Providers and clinic staff
Will be assessed qualitatively through semi-structured interviews using questions like "How relevant were intervention components and how compatible was the intervention with values and the workflow of the practice?"
Perceived feasibility: Providers and clinic staff
Will be assessed qualitative through semi-structured interviews using questions like "What is the likelihood of sustaining the implementation of the intervention component in practice after the research study concludes."

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to refine and test CONFIDENCE, a multi-component clinic-based intervention in pediatric or family practice clinical settings. Using a randomized control trial design, the investigators will assess preliminary effectiveness of the intervention to increase COVID-19 vaccine intention among parents of under-vaccinated children ages 5 to 17. Participating clinics will receive a brief intervention consisting of: (1) webinar training focused on communication with vaccine-hesitant parents, (2) parent-facing educational materials about COVID-19 vaccination, (3) support to create a personalized, poster campaign featuring providers. Clinics in the control condition will receive the intervention approximately 12 months after the clinics in the intervention condition.

7. Study Design

Primary Purpose
Prevention
Study Phase
Not Applicable
Interventional Study Model
Parallel Assignment
Model Description
The investigators will be using a cluster, randomized control trial design, in which clinics are assigned to either the intervention or control group. Clinics in the control group or "waitlist" condition, will receive the intervention approximately 12 months later.
Masking
Participant
Masking Description
Clinics will know if they are assigned to the intervention or control condition. However, individual participants (parents of children ages 5 to 17) will not know if their clinic is in the intervention or control condition.
