About
This research project will develop an educational intervention to improve immunization acceptance by vaccine hesitant parents. This is prospective interventional case-control trial, where the investigators will provide the intervention in the clinical setting. Enrollees will be screened and selected if they meet criteria for "vaccine hesitancy". The investigators will conduct follow up surveys following the intervention to assess change in attitude and follow immunization rates through 18 month well visit.
Full description
The intervention is a 8 minute video addressing common concerns that have been reported by vaccine hesitant parents. The video includes an expert in pediatric infectious diseases answering these common questions as well as 3 parental accounts of children who contracted vaccine preventable diseases. Also, the interventional group will be provided with two handouts: one listed information on how parents can find accurate vaccine information on the internet, and another that addresses more common concerns of vaccine hesitant parents and available for our use from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Vaccine Center website.
