PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to 1) determine the demographic differences between adults who have accepted, or plan to accept, the COVID-19 vaccine and those who will not accept the COVID-19 vaccine and 2) describe the potential influencers in deciding to accept the COVID-19 vaccine among adults living in the United States who have accepted or plan to accept the vaccine. DESIGN: A cross-sectional design utilizing an online survey was deployed using social media and a crowdsourcing platform. SETTING: United States. SUBJECTS: One thousand three hundred ninety-five (1395) adults completed the survey. The majority were white, male, between the ages of 25 and 45, and with representation from 50 states and Puerto Rico. MEASURES: A two-branched survey was used to assess demographic information, vaccination intention, and 19 potential influencers of COVID-19 vaccine acceptance. ANALYSIS: Analysis included descriptive statistics and Chi-square tests to determine differences between groups. RESULTS: A higher proportion of male (P < .001), married (P < .001), and college-educated (P < .001) participants reported acceptance of the vaccine. The factors with the highest mean score of reported level of influence were duty to protect the vulnerable and contribution to move society back to a sense of normalcy. CONCLUSION: Understanding the potential influencers of vaccine acceptance may provide insight into strategies that could increase vaccination uptake.

Factors contributing to a positive childbirth experience for women in a hospital setting: an umbrella review protocol.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this umbrella review is to identify and evaluate the factors that contribute to a positive childbirth experience in laboring women in the hospital setting. INTRODUCTION: Childbirth is a milestone for women. Overall, the experience can positively or negatively affect self-esteem, bonding, future childbirth decisions, and overall health and well-being. Understanding of the mother's perception and expectation of the childbirth event is needed to promote positive experiences and outcomes. INCLUSION CRITERIA: This review will consider qualitative systematic reviews that include pregnant women, women in active labor, or women who have recently given birth. This review will consider systematic reviews conducted in a hospital setting in any geographical location reporting on women's positive childbirth experiences, and the factors that led to positive experiences. METHODS: The search strategy will aim to locate qualitative systematic reviews. Databases to be searched include MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, Scopus, JBI Evidence Synthesis, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Sources of unpublished reviews and gray literature to be searched include ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Sciences and Engineering Collection and OpenGrey. Systematic reviews published since 2001 in the English language will be included. Data will be extracted from systematic reviews by two independent reviewers and findings from the included reviews, as they relate to the umbrella review question, will be presented in tabular format with a supplemental narrative to ensure interpretability.
