About this study

Official title: Effects of a Multidisciplinary Team-led School-based Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Health-promotion Programme (MDL-SHPVP) on Improving Vaccine Acceptance and Uptake Among Female Adolescents: A Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial

The MDL-SHPVP will be developed and a clustered randomised controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate the effects of the MDL-SHPVP and to examine whether the effect of the MDL-SHPVP on the rate of HPV vaccine uptake 1 year after intervention is mediated by parents'/guardians' and female adolescents' HPV knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, adolescents' intention to receive HPV vaccination and vaccine acceptance among their parents/guardians.

Read the detailed description

2520 adolescents and their parents or guardians from 18 local secondary day schools will be recruited. Multicomponent interventions will be offered to the intervention schools. To build and strengthen the community capacity in health promotion, a team of volunteers will be established to raise awareness of HPV, cervical cancer and HPV vaccine.

Data will be collected at baseline, 1 month and 1 year after intervention. The mixed-effects model will be used to compare the differential changes for each of the primary and secondary outcomes across time between the two groups.

The project is expected to instil a more accurate understanding of HPV and HPV vaccination and support the decision to undergo vaccination.

What is being measured

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

  1. Female adolescents' uptake of the HPV vaccine

    Self report uptake of the HPV vaccine by the female adolescents in the past 12 months.

    Measured: 1 year post-intervention

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change of female adolescents' intention to receive HPV vaccination

    A 10-point Likert scale will be used to measure the intention indicates "Definitely". 1 indicates "Definitely not" and 10 indicates "Definitely". Higher value means higher intention.

    Measured: baseline, 1 month post-intervention

  2. Change of vaccine acceptance among parents/guardians

    Precaution Adoption Process Model will be used to measure the vaccine acceptance.

    Measured: baseline, 1 month post-intervention

  3. Change of female adolescents' and parents'/ guardians' HPV knowledge

    HPV General and HPV Vaccine Knowledge Scale will be used to measure the knowledge.1 point will be given to each correct answer and 0 points will be given to each incorrect or "Don't know" answer. Higher scores mean more HPV knowledge.

    Measured: baseline, 1 month post-intervention

  4. Change of female adolescents' HPV attitudes and beliefs

    Carolina HPV Immunisation Attitudes and Beliefs Scale will be used to measure the attitudes and belief.

    An 11-point Likert scale will be used, with 0, 5, 7 and 10 indicate "strongly disagree," "somewhat disagree," "somewhat agree" and "strongly agree" respectively, or indicate "extremely ineffective, "somewhat ineffective," "somewhat effective" and "extremely effective" respectively. Higher values mean stronger agreement with the statement and less agreement with or endorsement of HPV vaccination. Five items will be reverse-coded.

    Measured: baseline, 1 month post-intervention

  5. Change of parents'/ guardians' HPV attitudes and beliefs

    Carolina HPV Immunisation Attitudes and Beliefs Scale will be used to measure the attitudes and belief.

    A 4-point Likert scale will be used. 1,2,3 and 4 indicate "strongly disagree," "somewhat disagree," somewhat agree," and "strongly agree" respectively. Higher values indicate stronger agreement with the statement.

    Measured: baseline, 1 month post-intervention

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MDL-SHPVP and 30-minute educational video in people with HPV Infection and Health Behavior, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in Hong Kong.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Female adolescents' uptake of the HPV vaccine (time frame: 1 year post-intervention). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
