Missed opportunity for immunisation is one of the hurdles in the achievement of 85 percent or more immunisation coverage. It is essential to screen every child for immunisation status and advise necessary immunisation at every opportunity otherwise full immunisation coverage may not be possible. Present survey was carried out at Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital, Nagpur to study the sociomedical correlates of missed opportunities for immunisation in children below 2 years of age attending the hospital. Missed opportunities for immunisation in these children was found to be 39.9%. It is mostly for B. C. G. (21.8%) and measles (9.8%) and maximum for booster doses of DPT and polio (43%).
免疫接种错失机会是实现85%及以上免疫接种覆盖率的障碍之一。必须筛查每个儿童的免疫接种状况，并在每次机会时提供必要的免疫接种建议，否则可能无法实现全面免疫接种覆盖率。本次调查在那格浦尔的英迪拉·甘地医学院和医院进行，以研究在该医院就诊的2岁以下儿童免疫接种错失机会的社会医学相关因素。这些儿童的免疫接种错失机会率为39.9%。主要是卡介苗（21.8%）和麻疹（9.8%），而白百破和脊髓灰质炎加强剂的错失机会率最高（43%）。
