Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection among youth in the United States. Although HPV vaccinations are readily available, HPV immunizations remain lower than target rates. The purpose of this review is to consider text message reminder system efficacy to improve HPV vaccination rates in eligible children. A literature review was conducted using Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature and PubMed databases to search articles illustrating the effect of text message reminder systems. Research is primarily conclusive of improved HPV vaccination rates through text message reminder systems, indicating the need for practice guidelines directed at text message delivery and text message content. This integrative review synthesizes and highlights available literature on implementing text message reminder systems to improve HPV vaccination rates. Once the text message reminder system is in place, automatic arrangement of preventive care service is hassle-free for practices.
