Name
SunYat-senU20230908
Description
The goal of this cluster randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effect of health education interventions on influenza vaccination rates and health literacy in primary school students in the city of Dongguan in China. Individuals aged 7 to 12 years who are in grades 4-5 in primary schools in Dongguan will be enrolled. 20 primary schools will be randomly selected, with half designated as intervention group schools and the remaining half as control group schools. The intervention group will receive a monthly health education intervention focused on influenza vaccination for 5 months, while the control group will continue with their routine school health education for 5 months. Researchers will compare the differences in influenza vaccination rates and influenza vaccination health literacy levels between the intervention and control groups after 5 months to see if health education can promote influenza vaccination health literacy among primary school students.
