Brief Summary

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

This study plans to learn more about whether a stakeholder-informed, standardized inpatient vaccination program will increase influenza vaccination rates of hospitalized children across US pediatric health systems. The first part of the study is to form a multidisciplinary team of stakeholders, including parents, providers, nurses, pharmacists, informaticists, data analysts and communication experts across three sites in synthesizing a best practice implementation guide for an inpatient influenza vaccination program, which will then be piloted at these three sites.

Detailed Description

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

The overarching goal of this proposal is to determine whether a stakeholder-informed, standardized inpatient influenza vaccination program will increase influenza vaccination rates of hospitalized children across diverse U.S. pediatric health systems. Building upon preliminary data and experience with pediatric inpatient influenza vaccine delivery, the investigators will engage a multidisciplinary team of stakeholders in synthesizing a best practice implementation guide for an inpatient influenza vaccination program across three sites. The next phase of the study, using a novel adaptive trial design, will be to implement and test the program across 12 health systems. Finally, the investigators will evaluate the program's impact using an established dissemination and implementation framework.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

SEQUENTIAL

The investigators will conduct a cluster SMART to evaluate the effectiveness of an inpatient influenza vaccination program on influenza vaccination rates during hospitalization at 12 U.S. pediatric health systems over 3 influenza vaccination seasons (Study Years 3-5). Sites will be randomized to the standardized influenza vaccination program or usual care in the first intervention season (traditional cluster RCT). Usual care and low performing sites will be re-randomized to the standardized program (intervention A) or the standardized program with an intensified implementation strategy (intervention B) in the second season. Sites will continue their programs in the third season to assess sustainability. The unit of intervention (randomization) is the site (i.e., health system).
Primary Study Purpose

HEALTH_SERVICES_RESEARCH

Blinding Strategy

NONE

Sites will be randomized 2:1 by the study statistician to intervention A vs. usual care. The randomization will be stratified by academic or academic plus community setting. This will ensure that the groups are balanced for site variables that may be correlated with the outcomes of interest. After the first intervention season, the 4 usual care sites and 6 lowest performing intervention sites (lowest change in vaccination rates from their baseline data) will be randomized 1:1 to intervention A vs. intervention B.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Standardized inpatient influenza vaccination program

Intervention A: The basic intervention is the inpatient influenza vaccination program, which will be comprised of the following core components: informatics and data analytic tools, evidenced-based education and communication, a multidisciplinary leadership team, and end-user engagement. Intervention B: The intensified intervention is the multifaceted influenza vaccination strategy (Intervention A) plus a learning collaborative with lead site facilitation during the trial period.
