A Multifaceted Intervention on Reducing Immunization Errors
Sponsor: Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein
Summary
The goal of this trial is to reduce the general error related to vaccines and immunizations (composited on secondary endpoint), after 11 moths of folow-up after cluster randomization and stepped wedge on primary care on brazilian public health. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the effectiveness of a multifaceted intervention in vaccination rooms in reducing vaccination errors. 2. To describe the rate of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) and the associated factors.

Multifaceted intervention
The multifaceted quality improvement intervention includes: video-based training on vaccine management in SUS, an optimized Cold Chain Manual schema, technical documents on proper vaccine handling and immunization schedules, and checklists for managing post-vaccination errors and corrective procedures. Videos will focus on six key points (right person, vaccine, dose, time, route, and documentation), with each lasting about 2 minutes and accessible on-demand. The Cold Chain schema will cover storage, monitoring, transport, conservation, and handling, with checklists for each category. Standardized technical documents will align with video themes, ensuring protocol adherence. An error identification and management schema will address issues like improper vaccine administration, cold chain violations, and incorrect dosages. This schema will be reviewed by staff and made available in health units.
