Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
CYP attending the PED may also have lower vaccination coverage than their peers, so may benefit even more from interventions to increase uptake. However, recall by parents/carers is not always sufficiently accurate to identify those who have not yet received all their age-appropriate vaccinations. The most complete record of an individual's vaccination history is held within their primary care records. However, these records are often in a separate computer system that is inaccessible from the hospital's main computer system, although some information (including vaccination) may be accessed from within the hospital via a third system.
This study aims to see if CYP attending the PED are under-vaccinated compared to their peers and assess the accuracy of parent/carer recall. The results of this study will then be used to inform recommendations for developing better ways to access accurate vaccination data during a PED consultation. If such a system existed, under-vaccinated children could be identified routinely during an attendance, and an intervention offered if appropriate. This would be particularly useful if there was an outbreak of a vaccine-preventable disease such measles.
All CYP (\< 16 years old) attending a PED in a district general hospital in Manchester will be invited to participate. CYP/their parent/carer will be asked to provide consent for their vaccination records to be accessed as well as being asked if the child/young person is up-to-date with all their vaccinations. Approximately 1000 participants will be enrolled.

Attendees at Paediatric Emergency Department 1 (PED1)
These participants will be recruited from the children and young people (under the age of 16) attending the PED of a large district general hospital.
There was going to be a second group recruited but COVID meant that the site was not able to support non-COVID studies by the time the necessary approvals were in place.
