Assessment of Knowledge on Pneumococcal Vaccination Among Diabetologists in India

A cross-sectional study will be conducted among 25 diabetologists in each of the four zones in India representing all directions - North, East, West and South. Diabetologists will be selected through purposive sampling. A semi-structured questionnaire (study tool) is designed based on the existing literature that addresses our objectives. An education session on Pneumococcal vaccination will be conducted for the diabetologists through webinar after completing the survey. A post assessment will be done using the same questionnaire among the study participants after the education session in order to see an increase in the knowledge of pneumococcal vaccination.
