Establishment of a vaccine administration training program for medical students
Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2022 Nov 3;36(2):157-160. doi: 10.1080/08998280.2022.2137373. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTWhile vaccine administration training is included in the curriculum for several health professions, it is not universally incorporated into the medical school preclinical curriculum. To fill this education gap, a pilot vaccine training program for first- and second-year medical students was conducted using an online Centers for Disease Control and Prevention module and an in-person simulation with nursing faculty. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the training program. Pre- and post-sur...

Recommendations for cervical cancer prevention and control in Ghana: public education and human papillomavirus vaccination.
Authors: Nartey Y, Hill P, Amo-Antwi K, Asmah R, Nyarko K, Yarney J, Damale N, Cox B Abstract Globally, cervical cancer is a major public health issue causing increasing morbidity and mortality especially in low- and middle-income countries where preventive and control measures are lacking. In Ghana, it is the most common cancer among women. Approaches to reduce the incidence and mortality of the disease in Ghana have had little success due to lack of accurate data on the disease among other factors, to inform policies on prevention, early detection, diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, the lack of clear commitme...

Effectiveness of a hospital-based postnatal parent education intervention about pain management during infant vaccination: a randomized controlled trial.
Authors: Taddio A, Shah V, Bucci L, MacDonald NE, Wong H, Stephens D Abstract BACKGROUND: Parents have reported that they want to learn how to reduce pain in infants during vaccinations. Our objective was to compare different levels of intensity of postnatal education about pain mitigation on parental self-reported use of interventions at future infant vaccinations. METHODS: We conducted a longitudinal, 3-group parallel, add-on, randomized controlled trial on the postnatal ward of a hospital. New mothers, unaware of the hypothesis, were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 intervention groups and 3 follow-up groups (i.e...

Effect of Education on Awareness, Knowledge, and Willingness to Be Vaccinated in Females of Western India
AbstractCervical Cancer is the second most leading cause of death among Indian women. Infection by human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the major causes of cervical cancer. Two prophylactic HPV vaccines approved and recommended for adolescents and young women in India. However, due to lack of appropriate knowledge, education, resources, and proper communication, these tools have little impact on disease burden. It is important to understand attitude, knowledge, and beliefs of females about HPV, cervical cancer, and HPV vaccine. Hence, the present study aimed to check awareness, educate females about cervical cancer and HPV...

Medical students and risk of COVID-19 infection: A descriptive cross-sectional study from the university of Jordan
CONCLUSION: The incidence of positive COVID-19 tests was found to be higher among clinical students as compared to pre-clinical students. Commitment to general health safety precautions did not appear to be protective enough for clinical students. It is fundamental that additional strategies, including access to vaccines, are set, and deficiencies in current protections are identified to maintain students' safety and well-being.PMID:34545306 | PMC:PMC8444353 | DOI:10.1016/j.amsu.2021.102775

The Evaluation of a Digital Health Intervention to Improve Human Papillomavirus Vaccine Recommendation Practices of Medical Students
AbstractWe investigated what is being taught about HPV in US medical schools and evaluated a digital health intervention for medical students to increase their intention to provide a high-quality HPV vaccine recommendation. An online survey was emailed to Academic Deans at the 124 accredited US Schools of Medicine and Osteopathic Medicine between February and April 2018. A digital educational module was emailed to medical students in June 2020. A single-subject longitudinal study design was employed. Pre- post-survey administration measured change in knowledge, attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and...

Immunization requirements in medical school accreditation standards
Vaccine. 2023 Apr 29:S0264-410X(23)00418-8. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.04.026. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHealthcare workers (HCW) are at risk of contracting vaccine-preventable diseases and spreading these infections to their patients. Vaccination against preventable diseases prior to clinical training can mitigate this risk. Accreditation guidance can be used as an opportunity to enforce desirable norms and standards. Standards from 144 national accreditation organizations spanning 123 member states listed in the Directory of Organizations that Recognize/Accredit Medical Schools by the Foundation for Advancement of I...
