| Popis: | Context: In the United States, immunization recommendations and their associated schedules are developed by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). To assist with the translation process and better harmonize the outcomes of existing clinical decision support tools, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) created clinical decision support for immunization (CDSi) resources for each set of ACIP recommendations. These resources are continually updated and refined as new vaccine recommendations and clarifications become available and will be available to health information systems for a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine when one becomes available for use in the United States. Objectives: To assess awareness of CDSi resources, whether CDSi resources were being used by immunization-related health information systems, and perceived impact of CDSi resources on stakeholders’ work.Design: Online surveys conducted from 2015–2019 including qualitative and quantitative questions.Participants: The main and technical contact from each of the 64 CDC-funded immunization information system (IIS) awardees, IIS vendors, and electronic health record vendors. Results: Awareness of at least one resource increased from 75% of respondents in 2015 to 100% in 2019. Use of at least one CDSi resource also increased from 47% in 2015 to 78% in 2019. About 80% or more of users of CDSi are somewhat or very highly satisfied with the resources and report a somewhat or very positive impact from using them. Conclusion: As awareness and use of CDSi resources increases, the likelihood that patients receive recommended immunizations at the right time will also increase. Rapid and precise integration of vaccine recommendations into health information systems will be particularly important when a COVID-19 vaccine becomes available to help facilitate vaccine implementation. |
