摘要
The adolescent development age is the period between 10 and 19 years when a child becomes a young adult and learns to make important health decisions independently. Adolescents consenting to receive a vaccine without parental or legal guardian consent is adolescent self-consent. Adolescent self-consent for the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is a health policy issue that could increase vaccine uptake rates. Adolescent self-consent for the vaccine may increase adolescents' autonomy with their healthcare decisions. Pediatric advanced practice nurses and other healthcare providers should advocate for adolescents and encourage parents to allow adolescents to be more active regarding the HPV vaccine.
