A complex intervention on vaccination uptake among older adults ( ≥ 60 years) in Germany - a study protocol with a mixed methods design

In this study, a complex intervention to improve vaccination rates in GP practices for the vaccinations recommended for people aged 60 years and older will be implemented and evaluated. Additionally, improvements in patients' vaccine-related health literacy and knowledge, and patients' intention to get vaccinated are expected. The mixed methods design can deliver results that can be used to improve preventive health care for elderly people and to gain more knowledge on vaccination uptake and the intervention's effectiveness.TRIAL REGISTRATION: Trial registration number: DRKS00027252 (retrospectively registered).PMID:37452283 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-023-02101-w
