目的:方法:对北卡罗来纳州696名10-17岁女性家长进行电话调查,了解HPV疫苗的知识和信息来源(女儿学校、医疗保健提供者、制药公司广告、新闻报道)进行。结果:总体而言,91%的家长听说过HPV疫苗。如果父母的家庭收入在5万美元或更高,是女性,有非西班牙裔白色女儿,或者女儿接种了脑膜炎疫苗,他们更有可能意识到。信息来源包括制药公司广告(64%),医疗保健提供者(50%),新闻报道(50%)和学校(9%)。只有父母谁听到他们的孩子的医疗保健提供者更有可能启动HPV疫苗为他们的女儿。结论:父母很少听说过疫苗通过学校。与疫苗启动相关的唯一来源是从医疗保健提供者那里听到的。(C)2010年青少年健康和医学协会。All rights reserved.
Purpose: To examine correlates of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine awareness and information sources in a state requiring schools to inform parents about HPV vaccine.Methods: Telephone survey of a North Carolina population-based sample of 696 parents of females aged 10-17 years about HPV vaccine awareness and information sources (daughters' schools, healthcare provider, drug company advertisements, news stories) was conducted.Results: Overall, 91% of parents had heard of HPV vaccine. Parents were more likely to be aware if they had household incomes of $50,000 or higher, were women, had non-Hispanic white daughters, or had daughters vaccinated against meningitis. Information sources included drug company advertisements (64%), healthcare providers (50%), news stories (50%), and schools (9%). Only parents who heard from their children's healthcare providers were more likely to initiate HPV vaccine for their daughters.Conclusions: Parents had rarely heard of the vaccine through schools. The only source associated with vaccine initiation was hearing from a healthcare provider. (C) 2010 Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine. All rights reserved.
