“…These results differ from our predictions and are somewhat surprising since many parents have expressed concerns about their children receiving three injections during the same healthcare visit (Madlon-Kay and Harper, 1994; Woodin et al, 1995). Such concerns may have been outweighed by parents recognizing the opportunity for their sons to also get seasonal influenza and meningococcal vaccines, as many adolescents do not receive these recommended vaccines (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2010d; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2011b).…”

“…Since default policies may influence parents’ consent decisions, we examined the effects of such policies on parents’ consent to their adolescent sons hypothetically receiving HPV vaccine at school. Based on past research concerning opt-out policies (Chapman et al, 2010; Johnson and Goldstein, 2003) and parental concerns about concomitant administration of vaccines (Madlon-Kay and Harper, 1994; Woodin et al, 1995), we predicted consent for HPV vaccination would be higher under an opt-out consent policy and when consent was for only HPV vaccine. We also predicted that defaults would be especially important for parents who were undecided about whether to get their sons HPV vaccine in the next year, as their opinions may be more malleable than parents who already favor the vaccine.…”

Default policies and parents’ consent for school-located HPV vaccination

While defaults may encourage some health behaviors, how defaults influence controversial behaviors is not well understood. We examined the effect of two default policies on parents’ consent to have their adolescent sons hypothetically receive HPV vaccine at school. A national sample of 404 parents of adolescent sons participated in an online 3×2 between-subjects factorial experiment. Factors varied the default consent policy (opt-in, opt-out, or neutral) and the number of vaccines sons would receive (HPV vaccine alone or along with two other recommended adolescent vaccines). Among parents wanting to get their sons HPV vaccine in the next year, consent was higher in the opt-in condition (compared to the opt-out condition) or if other recommended adolescent vaccines would be included. Default policies had no effect among parents undecided about HPV vaccination. Parents’ consent for school-located HPV vaccination may be higher when presented as an opt-in decision and other vaccines are included.

“…Frequent practice‐ and clinic‐based immunization assessments, using the standard Clinical Assessment Software Application (CASA) and Assessment‐Feedback‐Information‐eXchange (AFIX), are helpful, as are reimbursements and administration fees that recognize and reward optimal immunization (Tuck, 2006). Studies have shown that nurses are more likely to administer all antigens due at each visit if they use combination vaccines, which require fewer injections (Madlon‐Kay & Harper, 1994; Woodin et al, 1995).…”

Efforts are needed to increase health care providers' knowledge of pertussis disease and vaccines, improve on-time infant immunization rates, promote immunization registries and public health surveillance, and ensure adequate compensation for vaccine purchase and administration. Universal recommendations for and widespread use of acellular pertussis vaccines in adolescents are the most effective measures in controlling the disease.

“…Despite these benefits, many parents remain reluctant to consent to concomitant vaccination for children and adolescents, 17–19 and providers may also hesitate to deliver vaccines concomitantly. 18–20 Missed opportunities for concomitant vaccination, particularly with HPV vaccine, are common.…”

“…16, 21, 22 Parents’ hesitancies could arise from fears about side effects, such as pain or “overburdening” the immune system. 23–25 Some clinicians share these concerns 18, 19 or overestimate parents’ concerns, 24 and thus may hesitate to recommend concomitant vaccination. Health communication campaigns that target groups who are least likely to concomitantly vaccinate could overcome these barriers.…”

Introduction Concomitant (same-day) delivery of two or more vaccines to adolescents is effective, safe, and efficient. Increasing concomitant vaccination could improve coverage for recommended adolescent vaccines, but little is known about who receives vaccines concomitantly. Methods Data came from healthcare provider–verified records on 70,144 adolescents (aged 13–17 years) in the 2008–2012 versions of the National Immunization Survey–Teen who had received at least one dose of tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) booster, meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MenACWY), or human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine. Separately for each vaccine, multivariable logistic regression identified adolescent and household correlates of concomitant versus single vaccination, stratified by adolescent sex. Vaccination took place in 2007–2012, data collection in 2008–2012, and data analysis in 2015. Results Among vaccinated adolescents, 51%–65% of girls and 25%–53% of boys received two vaccines concomitantly. Concomitant uptake of each vaccine increased over survey years (e.g., 2012 vs 2008: girls’ Tdap booster, OR=1.88, 95% CI=1.56, 2.26; boys’ Tdap booster, OR=2.62, 95% CI=2.16, 3.16), with the exception of HPV vaccination among boys. Additionally, concomitant vaccination was less common as adolescents got older and in the Northeast (all p<0.05). For MenACWY and HPV vaccine, concomitant uptake was less common for girls whose mothers had higher versus lower education and for boys who lived in metropolitan versus non-metropolitan areas (all p<0.05). Conclusions Missed opportunities for concomitant adolescent vaccination persist, particularly for HPV vaccine. Future interventions targeting groups with low rates of concomitant vaccination could improve population-level coverage with recommended vaccines.
