Official title
Intervention to Educate and Improve Underserved Populations' Uptake and Completion of the HPV Vaccine Series
Overview
The educational intervention to be delivered by the PN(Patient Navigator) consists of "toolkit education materials" developed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and a small media intervention (i.e., video) that our research team has developed. The NCI-produced toolkit education materials consist of Power Point presentations, flyers, and posters that contain information about HPV(Human Papilloma Virus), HPV-related cancers, and the importance of the HPV vaccine series for adolescents (9-17 years old) and young adults (18-26 year old) who are eligible for the vaccine.
Detailed description
The investigator will use a one-group post-test design to assess the effects of the intervention on the primary outcomes. The educational intervention will be delivered to 400 participants by a trained CHE who will deliver the educational materials to eligible DHHA patients. The CHE will administer the post-education survey at baseline to participants. Additionally, we will use a one-group post-test design to assess the impact of the intervention on the secondary outcomes. At the patient-level, we will track participants that receive (a) 1st dose, 2nd dose, or 3rd dose of the HPV vaccine; and the number of referrals to care by recording the number of patients received (b) referrals to health insurance, discount, or no-cost HPV vaccine programs; or (c) to other services to facilitate HPV vaccine dose completion. To assess clinic-level impact, we will track each clinic's HPV vaccine rates for adolescents (9-17 years old) and young adults (18-26) and compare rates from before we start the intervention and then quarterly there after we have introduced the intervention to each respective Denver Health clinic.
Interventions
- Behavioral HPV Educational Intervention
The videos are 8-minute narrative films created using an entertainment-education (E-E) approach that embeds an educational narrative message into an entertainment format such as media. E-E narratives have demonstrated a significant effect (r = .12, p \< .001) on health behavior change. Evidence-based small media interventions that Dr. Borrayo has produced include videos that are highly verbal, visual, and entertaining (e.g., acted fictional stories). The aims of the video will be to model uptake
Primary outcome measures
- The change in parents & young adults' knowledge & intentions to obtain the HPV vaccine [Time frame: Day 0/Baseline]
- Sociodemographic data (e.g., age, gender, ethnicity, insurance, income, zip code) as it relates to vaccine uptake [Time frame: Day 0/Baseline]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
- Uptake of one, two, or three HPV vaccine doses among adolescents (9 to 17 years old) and young adults (18-26 years old). [Time frame: 3 and 6 months post intervention]
