ContextCurrently, in the UK there are outbreaks of vaccinatable diseases including flu and measles, which can lead to life-threatening complications and death. Vaccination is a cost-effective way to keep people healthy, reduce disability and save lives. However, research has found that perinatal (pregnant and postnatal) ethnic minority women are more likely to experience vaccine hesitancy than other populations in the UK. In 2020, 18% of UK ethnic minority people experienced vaccine hesitancy, 72% of these were Black ethnicity, 42% South Asians Pakistani/ Bangladeshi and 32% mixed ethnicities and research demonstrates that ethnic minority populations experience barriers to having vaccines, such as a lack of knowledge/ misinformation, language and cultural barriers. However, research is needed to explore in depth the specific barriers and facilitators for perinatal ethnic minority women and young children, to develop an intervention that will encourage vaccine uptake.Digital animation interventions have been used successfully to change health behaviour in other contexts with ethnic minority populations by communicating key messages in an accessible language to influence peoples' beliefs and meet their educational needs. Our research team has expertise in using digital animation with ethnic minority women with 3 DAISIs (digital animation in service improvement) on our website. These co-produced short cartoons are downloadable onto a smart phone and communicate messages in different languages, using spoken words and subtitles. One focuses on living well with gestational diabetes, another reducing the risk of stillbirth and the third, reducing the risk of postnatal sepsis. Our ongoing evaluation is positive, DAISI influencing women's intention to change their behaviour.We have consulted ethnic minority women who believe that a DAISI intervention used in community groups, with trained peers re-enforcing the messages in the app could encourage perinatal women and mothers with young children to have their vaccines. Therefore, this study aims to co-produce, implement and evaluate the feasibility of using a DAISI intervention in community settings. This will prepare for a full-scale evaluation where trained peers implement DAISI.

背景目前，英国爆发了流感和麻疹等可接种疫苗的疾病，这些疾病可能导致危及生命的并发症和死亡。疫苗接种是保持人们健康、减少残疾和拯救生命的一种经济有效的方法。然而，研究发现，围产期（怀孕和产后）少数族裔女性比英国其他人群更有可能对疫苗犹豫不决。 2020 年，18% 的英国少数族裔对疫苗接种犹豫不决，其中 72% 是黑人，42% 是南亚人、巴基斯坦/孟加拉人和 32% 的混血儿，研究表明，少数族裔在接种疫苗方面遇到障碍，例如缺乏知识/错误信息、语言和文化障碍。然而，需要研究深入探讨围产期少数民族妇女和幼儿的具体障碍和促进因素，以制定鼓励疫苗接种的干预措施。数字动画干预措施已成功用于改变其他少数民族背景下的健康行为通过以易于理解的语言传达关键信息来影响人们的信仰并满足他们的教育需求。我们的研究团队拥有在少数民族妇女中使用数字动画的专业知识，并在我们的网站上提供了 3 个 DAISI（服务改进中的数字动画）。这些联合制作的短片可以下载到智能手机上，并使用口语和字幕以不同的语言传达信息。一是关注妊娠期糖尿病患者的良好生活，二是降低死产风险，三是降低产后败血症的风险。我们正在进行的评估是积极的，DAISI 影响了妇女改变行为的意愿。我们咨询了少数族裔妇女，她们认为在社区团体中使用 DAISI 干预措施，并让经过培训的同伴强化应用程序中的信息，可以鼓励围产期妇女和母亲年幼的儿童接种疫苗。因此，本研究旨在共同制定、实施和评估在社区环境中使用 DAISI 干预措施的可行性。这将为受过培训的同行实施 DAISI 的全面评估做好准备。
