PROBOOSTVAXED Trial Summary

This trial aims to see if messaging and/or asking about vaccine acceptance increases adults' booster vaccine uptake at 30 days post ED visit.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who haven't had a COVID-19 booster in the last 6 months, can consent, speak English or Spanish, and are visiting the emergency department. They must be able to watch a short video. People with major trauma, intoxication, critical illness, incarceration, psychiatric hold or recent vaccination are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if certain messages about COVID-19 boosters increase how many people get vaccinated after an ED visit. Some will just answer questions on vaccines; others also get extra info on benefits of boosters. The effect of these strategies on vaccine uptake at 30 days post-visit is compared.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on messaging rather than administering vaccines directly, there aren't direct side effects from the intervention itself. However, general side effects of COVID-19 vaccines include sore arm, tiredness, headache and fever.

PROBOOSTVAXED Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: PROBOOSTVAXED Intervention M (Messaging + Vaccine Question)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Vaccine messaging Vaccine acceptance question All patients will receive an Intake Survey assessing their demographic and vaccination information. At the end of the Intake Survey, the Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) will deliver the booster vaccine information flyer and ask the patient if they will watch a short video on booster vaccines. If they agree, the CRC will give them a QR code to view the video on their smartphone or an iPad. After finishing with the video, the CRC will tell the subject that they will be back for the Vaccine Acceptance survey. The CRC will then leave the room and ask the patient's primary provider to deliver the booster vaccine scripted message. This message is short and should not significantly impact provider workflow. Vaccine Acceptance Survey (Post-Intervention) in the ED: We will administer the Vaccine Acceptance Survey at 30 minutes to 3 hours after the Intake Survey.
Group II: Intervention Q (Vaccine Question, No Messaging)Active Control1 Intervention
No vaccine messaging Vaccine acceptance question asked in the Vaccine Acceptance Survey Vaccine Acceptance Survey: We will administer the Vaccine Acceptance Survey at some time (generally 30 minutes but up to 3 hours) after the Intake Survey. The surveys in the control group retain the same key primary and secondary outcome questions as in the intervention group Vaccine Acceptance surveys.
Group III: Control (No Messaging, No Vaccine Question)Active Control1 Intervention
No vaccine messaging No vaccine acceptance question The workflow during this arm is identical to the Intervention Q arm except there will be no Vaccine Acceptance Question survey.
