About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to test an COVID-19 vaccination information video in adults with sickle cell disease. The main questions it aims to answer are why are some adults with sickle cell disease hesitant to receive COVID-19 vaccination and whether a COVID-19 vaccination information video tailored for people with sickle cell disease will reduce vaccine hesitancy. Participants will complete a brief survey before and after watching a short video with information on vaccine safety, efficacy, and the greater impact of COVID-19 infection on people with sickle cell disease.

Read the detailed description

In this research study, we seek to gain a better understanding of reasons for COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in adults with sickle cell disease (SCD). We will develop a SCD-specific COVID-19 vaccination information (SCVI) video that discusses vaccine safety, efficacy, and necessity of COVID-19 vaccination for the sickle cell patient population, and determine if the video reduces vaccine hesitancy in adults with SCD. Hopefully, this will inform future education interventions to improve confidence in COVID-19 vaccines and subsequently increase vaccination rates.

Specifically, the research objectives are:

To determine factors associated with COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy in adults with SCD To determine if a SCD-specific COVID-19 vaccination information (SCVI) video reduces vaccine hesitancy in adults with SCD.

This study will be conducted as a part of an ongoing prospective research study aimed at better understanding COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy at the Duke Adult Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center. Two cross-sectional surveys will be administered to patients seen in the Adult Sickle Cell Clinic and Day Hospital who meet the inclusion criteria. The purpose of the initial survey will be to obtain a baseline vaccination rate and to gain a better understanding behind vaccine hesitancy in this patient population. After completion of the first survey, a short video discussing the safety, efficacy, and importance of the COVID-19 vaccine for patients with sickle cell disease will be watched prior to completing the second survey. The video will be available via scanning a QR code or via direct link if the survey is filled out electronically. Members of the Community Advisory Board for the Duke Sickle Cell Program will be interviewed in a group to gain an understanding of how to improve and implement the assessment in practice (non-research activity). A subsequent "post-intervention" survey will then administered to determine if the SCVI video reduces vaccine hesitancy in adults with SCD. Both surveys should take ~5 minutes to complete. We estimate that these surveys will reach ~250 patients over the six months they are administered. Informed consent will obtained prior to completion of the surveys and watching the video. Survey responses will remain anonymous with no patient identifying information required for completion. Data will be stored and protected using the secure REDCap database.

What is being measured

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

  1. Vaccine hesitancy

    To assess vaccine hesitancy in patients not vaccinated for COVID-19, we will ask participants "how likely are you to get vaccinated for COVID-19 in the future?". Response options will be dichotomized into not hesitant ("likely or somewhat likely") vs neutral vs hesitant ("somewhat unlikely or not likely"). We will also assess vaccine hesitancy for people

    Measured: before and after watching video

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SCD-specific COVID-19 vaccination information (SCVI) video in people with Sickle Cell Disease and COVID-19 Vaccine, run by Duke University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Vaccine hesitancy (time frame: before and after watching video). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Dec 2024.
