Education Intervention on Vaccination Adherence Among Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Patients

Education Intervention on Vaccination Adherence Among IBD Patients at Weill Cornell Medical Center

A retrospective chart review and a six-month prospective outcome analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a vaccination education intervention and vaccination adherence among IBD patients at Weill-Cornell Medical Center. It is hypothesized that a general vaccination education campaign will improve vaccination adherence rates for all IBD patients. Secondarily, it is hypothesized that an Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccination intervention targeted at high-risk IBD patients will increase vaccination adherence among these patients.
