PCOM2 - The Physician Communication Intervention, Version 2.0

PCOM2 - The Physician Communication Intervention, Version 2.0" for "Linking the Provider Recommendation to Adolescent HPV Vaccine Uptake"

Sponsor

University of Colorado, Denver

Enrollment

120 participants

Start Date

Nov 15, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

HPV Infection Preventive Health Services

Summary

Poor quality of primary care providers' vaccine recommendations lead to low adolescent human papillomavirus vaccination rates and hundreds of thousands of adolescents unnecessarily at risk for HPV-associated cancers and diseases. Though a previous provider communication intervention, called PCOM, was found to be effective for increasing adolescent HPV vaccination in primary care, its dissemination is limited by the need for significant research team involvement to teach providers how to use the intervention's components. To address this, investigators propose to develop and test a virtual version of PCOM, use mixed methods to assess contextual factors affecting its use compared to the original PCOM intervention, and develop an optimized version of PCOM for broad dissemination to increase adolescent HPV vaccination nationally.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This clinical trial is studying a behavioral approach called Physician Communication 2 Virtual (PCOM2-virtual) and a behavioral approach called Physician Communication Standard (PCOM-standard) for people with hpv infection and preventive health services. The study is currently recruiting participants at 2 locations. People eligible for this study include aged 9 Years to 17 Years.

Interventions

BEHAVIORALPhysician Communication 2 Virtual (PCOM2-virtual)

The PCOM-standard intervention is based off of a provider communication training that utilizes presumptive technique when initiating the vaccine discussion followed by motivational interviewing if a parent continues to show hesitation. While this provider communication technique previously showed success in increasing HPV vaccination uptake, it is neither easy to disseminate nor sustainable due to it's nature of direct, intensive in-person training. Therefore, the intervention is to compare the standard-PCOM intervention to a new, PCOM2 intervention, that will be adapted virtually.
