To complete your enrollment, you will have to register to participate. Web site will now take the participant to a registration system that will also charge the patient for the enrollment fee. The example here uses an enrollment fee of $50.

Project title: Human Papilloma Virus immunization rates in adolescent females
Project Community Leader (PCL): Dr. Loren Yamamoto (E-mail: Loreny@hawaii.edu)
Duration: 32 weeks + 2 weeks for QI basics (if not already completed)
Current enrollment 12 participants (accepting up to 20 participants)
Enrollment will be closed in 8 days.

Project description: I suspect that I have many adolescent females in my practice who have not been immunized with human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine. It is more difficult to achieve high immunization rates in adolescents since they do not seek primary care on a regular basis as often as infants and children. I would like to improve my practice’s HPV immunization rate for adolescent females.

Measurement: Review charts of adolescent females. If the patient has completed at least two HPV vaccine doses, then score this as a “yes”. If not, then score this as a “no”.

This measure is determined by the PCL to be a two-category variable.

Performance and Improvement will be measured by percentages of the above.
Sample size: I will be required to review charts of patient encounters of 10 or more patients described in this project description and complete the measurement described above.

This project is justified by the information in this reference citation: AAP Committee on Infectious Diseases.
