Clinical Decision Support Systems
Brief summary
This study will test the effectiveness of clinician-focused health IT-based decision support, family-focused health IT-based decision support, and a combination of both efforts, in increasing HPV and other adolescent vaccine rates among adolescent girls. We hypothesize that a combination of clinician-focused clinical decision support and family-focused decision support will be most effective.
Detailed description
* Clinician-focused intervention includes an electronic health record-based decision support mechanism including reminders, education, audit and feedback on vaccination success. * Family-focused intervention includes vaccine reminders and informational telephone calls prompted by the electronic health record.
Interventions
Family-focused intervention includes informational vaccine reminder telephone calls prompted by an electronic health record.
Clinician-focused intervention includes an electronic health record-based decision support mechanism including reminders, education, audit and feedback on vaccination success.
This will be a combination of the family-focused decision support (telephone reminder calls) and clinician-focused decision support (clinical alerts).
