Abstract

Purpose: Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection leads to 26,000 new genitourinary and oropharyngeal cancers yearly. Routine recommendation for HPV adolescent immunization was made in 2007 for girls and 2011 for boys. Although this series is efficacious, HPV vaccination rates remain low nationwide, especially when compared to other vaccines of the adolescent platform. Our Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine clinic is evaluating our current HPV vaccination rates with the goal to reach series completion in at least 80% of our adolescents 13–17 years of age by the use of PDSA cycles.
