Periodic Survey of Fellows PS#84 was an eight-page self-administered questionnaire sent to 1622 nonretired U.S. members of the AAP from October 2012 to March 2013. Analysis is limited to those pediatricians who provide patient care and offer age appropriate immunizations to all or some patients in their practice (627 pediatricians). Parental refusal was reported as a major barrier to delivering HPV vaccine.* Lack of adolescent well visits was also a barrier. *Pediatricians say that parents are the barrier, parents say that pediatricians are the barrier.

HPV Umbrella Agreement: Objectives 1 and 2 Support AAP Chapter “HPV Action Plans” In November 2013, a call for proposals was issued to AAP Chapters, requesting participation in a variety of HPV vaccination activities. Thus far, 47 chapters in 43 states have submitted applications. Disseminate Existing HPV Vaccination Promotion Materials Discussions have focused on what materials exist and what is needed. A continuing medical education course will be available in February from the CDC. Videos and print materials are already available, though state- specific videos may be created. A flip chart to aid practice-level discussions will be developed.

HPV Umbrella Agreement: Objective 4 Use the AAP Healthy Children Expo (2014) to Promote HPV Vaccination to Parents. Program staff plan to exhibit at the Expo, which is the AAP’s first direct in-person education of parents. The conference aims to attract 5,000 families in the Chicago- land area and be repeated in other regions in future years. Booth space was requested and an exhibit is being designed with CDC materials. In addition, staff are working with the presenter of a session on adolescent immunization to include CDC messages on HPV vaccine.
