Brief Summary

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

Although coverage for primary childhood immunizations has improved, a significant proportion of young children and pregnant women living in low-resource settings remain inadequately immunized. While young children receive some primary vaccines, many are never fully vaccinated. Progressive decline in immunizations are in large part attributable to poor follow-up and compliance. Major challenges include maintaining immunization records linked to positive identification of the individual child, incentivizing follow-up and return immunizations and efficiently identifying and targeting non-compliant subjects. Mobile-phone costs have decreased dramatically in the developing world with rapid proliferation of web and mobile-phone connectivity. Novel approaches that integrate these modern technologies with existing resources in low and middle income countries can cost-effectively address these challenges. In this proposal, investigators will evaluate a novel software platform, utilizing biometric identification and of subjects, paired with intelligent and subject-aware, mobile-phone reminders and compliance-linked incentives to improve uptake and coverage of primary vaccinations in young children.

Detailed Description

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

A cloud-based, biometric-linked vaccination record, mobile-phone reminder and compliance-linked incentive software platform to provide robust and universal access of vaccinations. The investigators will implement this platform in a low-resource settings with the following features: a) Cloud-based for robust and universal access. b) Biometric-linked for positive identification. c) Digital storage and reporting for transparent view of program operations. d) Global Positioning System (GPS)-linked, allowing rapid assessment of vaccination status of communities. e) Increasing vaccination uptake and coverage by intelligent and subject-aware automated reminders and compliance-linked incentives.
