NCT04368455

Brief Summary

Our approach will be to implement Virtual Immersive Communication Training on Recommending Immunizations (VICTORI), an intervention that includes a self-directed app based curriculum and VR simulations, designed to increase the strength and consistency of HPV vaccine recommendations among clinicians. A single-site intervention assessing the efficacy of VICTORI in increasing HPV vaccine rates will be conducted.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percent Change From Baseline in the Percentage of Participants With HPV Vaccine Initiation

    The primary outcome was the percent change from pre versus post VICTORI in rates of HPV vaccine initiation among eligible patients presenting to clinic.

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Physicians Perceived Barriers

    3 months

  • Physicians Perceived Risk

    3 months

  • Physicians Attitudes Toward the HPV Vaccine

    3 months

  • Physicians Strength of Recommendation of the HPV Vaccine

    3 months

  • Physicians Self-efficacy

    3 months

Study Arms (2)

Primary Care Clinic

EXPERIMENTAL

Physician participants will receive the self-directed app based curriculum. The physician participants will engage in the VR simulations independently.Next, we will implement VICTORI with staff including nurses and medical assistants in groups of up to 15-20 participants (phase II; secondary outcome). Staff will watch a 5-minute video on evidence-based practices in recommending the HPV vaccine and observe a facilitator and clinician participating in the VICTORI VR simulations, and then engage in a 5-minute debriefing.

Behavioral: Virtual Immersive Communication Training on Recommending Immunizations (VICTORI)

Control Primary Care Clinic

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Physician participants will receive the self-directed app based curriculum component of VICTORI though will not undergo the VR simulations.

Behavioral: HPV Same Way Same Day App

Interventions
