背景资料：2008年9月，英国的学校护士开始为12岁和13岁的女孩提供HPV免疫接种计划。这项研究提供了见解，从学校护士的角度和经验，提供这种新的疫苗programme.Methods：30深入的电话采访进行了与学校护士工作在英国各地2008年9月至2009年5月。这段时间涵盖学校HPV疫苗接种计划的第一年。学校护士招募通过全科医生的做法，互联网和海报针对学校护士practitioners.Results：所有的学校护士谈到自己准备好了洪水的电话从有关的家长，但发现，事实上很少有家长打电话来询问更多的信息或表达他们对HPV疫苗的关注。一些学校的护士提到决策者缺乏规划，并说在提出时，她们感到准备不足。所有学校护士都详细谈到了对学校护士工作量的影响。他们认为，该计划大大增加了他们的工作量，导致他们削减了他们的核心活动和时间，他们可以专门提供支持，以弱势pupiles.Conclusion：总体而言，在英国实施的HPV疫苗接种计划的第一年已经超出了学校护士的期望，它的一些成功可能是由于学校护士的承诺，该计划。其他因素，包括积极的新闻媒体报道，伴随着HPV疫苗接种计划的引入，也可能发挥了作用。然而，学校护士也认为，该方案大大增加了他们的工作量，导致他们削减了核心活动，因此，他们无法再花时间为弱势学生提供支持。该方案的这一无意方面可能值得进一步探讨。
Background: In the United Kingdom (UK) in September 2008, school nurses began delivering the HPV immunisation programme for girls aged 12 and 13 years old. This study offers insights from school nurses' perspectives and experiences of delivering this new vaccination programme.Methods: Thirty in-depth telephone interviews were conducted with school nurses working across the UK between September 2008 and May 2009. This time period covers the first year of the HPV vaccination programme in schools. School nurses were recruited via GP practices, the internet and posters targeted at school nurse practitioners.Results: All the school nurses spoke of readying themselves for a deluge of phone calls from concerned parents, but found that in fact few parents telephoned to ask for more information or express their concerns about the HPV vaccine. Several school nurses mentioned a lack of planning by policy makers and stated that at its introduction they felt ill prepared. The impact on school nurses' workload was spoken about at length by all the school nurses. They believed that the programme had vastly increased their workload leading them to cut back on their core activities and the time they could dedicate to offering support to vulnerable pupils.Conclusion: Overall the first year of the implementation of the HPV vaccination programme in the UK has exceeded school nurses' expectations and some of its success may be attributed to the school nurses' commitment to the programme. It is also the case that other factors, including positive newsprint media reporting that accompanied the introduction of the HPV vaccination programme may have played a role. Nevertheless, school nurses also believed that the programme had vastly increased their workload leading them to cut back on their core activities and as such they could no longer dedicate time to offer support to vulnerable pupils. This unintentional aspect of the programme may be worthy of further exploration.
