Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To assess the acceptance of the Fluzone Intradermal (ID)vaccine in adults and vaccine administrators in the United States. Patients completed 2 surveys, one immediately post-vaccination and one seven days later, that documented demographics and assessed their injection pain, injection anxiety, speed of injection, overall satisfaction, and preference for next year's vaccine. Vaccine administrators completed one survey assessing ease of vaccine preparation and administration, time required to administer, and safety/risk of needle stick injury for patient and administrator.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients were divided into two groups: 1) those that reported receiving the intramuscular (IM) influenza vaccine in the past 3 years; and 2) those that reported not receiving the IM influenza vaccine in the past 3 years. The survey responses were compared between the two groups. In addition, the subjects that reported receiving the IM vaccine in the past 3 years were asked to compare their experience with the IM vaccine versus the ID vaccine.
