About this study

Official title: Efficacy Study of School-located Influenza Vaccination Clinics to Increase Influenza Vaccination Rates in Monroe County, New York

A cluster-randomized trial (clustering by school) was conducted in Monroe County, NY. Twenty middle and high schools were paired based on several characteristics and randomized within pairs to receiving a school-based influenza vaccination clinic or not (control).

Read the detailed description

The overarching goal of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of offering school-based influenza vaccination clinics during school hours on influenza vaccination rates. A cluster-randomized trial (clustering by school) was conducted in Monroe County, NY. Twenty middle and high schools were paired based on several characteristics including urban/suburban,school grade-span (6-8th, 9-12th), school size, percent of students eligible for free or reduced school lunch, and influenza vaccination rates in the previous season among students in the school. School were randomized within pairs, with one school offering a school-based influenza vaccination clinic or and one school not offering the clinic (control).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Influenza vaccination status as recorded in the NY state registry (NYSIIS)

    Vaccination status for the 2014/2015 influenza season will be assessed. The vaccination date will be recorded, as well as the provider name, to determine whether vaccine was received at the school-located influenza clinic

    Measured: Within one year
