A mixed methods approach to improving antenatal immunisation

The MAVIS Study involves several projects designed to explore maternal vaccination in England, to identify what could be improved:

-
National survey with healthcare professionals at maternity services in NHS areas with the highest and lowest maternal pertussis vaccination coverage (aiming for 500 participants).
- Survey development used theoretical frameworks of behavioural determinants, clinical advisory group consultation and think-aloud user-testing
- Quantitative and qualitative analysis of responses will identify barriers and facilitators to maternity-service delivery of vaccination.
- In-depth interviews with healthcare professonals will supplement survey data
- Project 2 includes an additional commissioner survey to map vaccination provision across all the maternity services/trusts in England
Project 2 has gained approval from the University of Bristol's Faculty of Health Science Research Ethics Committee (ref 9397)

-
National survey with recently pregnant women, especially those who did not receive maternal pertussis vaccination (aiming for 500 participants)
