Parent-provider communication of HPV vaccine hesitancy.
The authors of this study developed a typology characterizing parent-provider communication around the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in order to assist providers in communicating more effectively with parents around HPV vaccine hesitancy. Visits with unvaccinated adolescents at six pediatric clinics in Dallas, Texas, in which parents were undecided about HPV vaccination, were audio-recorded. The parents’ verbal expression of hesitancy and whether the providers responded with acquiescence and/or persistence were qualitatively coded, and the frequency of parent and provider communication codes and same-day vaccination described. The results indicate that providers who engage hesitant parents and address their concerns can lead to same-day HPV vaccination, and that even parents who make assertive statements are amenable to influence by providers.
