Can better training boost HPV shots? study tests two methods
NCT ID NCT05736718
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at two ways to help doctors talk to families about the HPV vaccine. Some clinics got training from an outside expert, while others learned from a vaccine champion within their own health system. The goal was to see which approach led to more children ages 9-12 getting vaccinated. The study involved 47 clinics and used medical records to track results.
