This study aimed at describing influenza vaccination coverage among Spanish children, adults and health care workers (HCWs).
We analyzed 27,791 questionnaires on subjects aged 6 months or over, drawn from the 2003 Spanish National Health Survey. As the dependent variable, we took the answer to the question, "Did you (or your child) have a flu shot in the last campaign?". Independent variables were age group, gender, nationality, occupation (HCWs) and coexistence of chronic conditions.
Overall influenza vaccination coverage for the total sample was 19.58%. Coverage for the pediatric population was 5.55%, with 20.74% of those with and 4.67% of those without chronic condition being vaccinated. Vaccination coverages were: 63.7% among subjects aged > or = 65 years; 30.5% among high-risk subjects aged < 65 years; and 19.65% among HCWs.
We conclude that the available results show low levels of influenza vaccination coverage among high-risk subjects aged under 65 years, children in particular, and HCWs.
本研究旨在描述西班牙儿童、成人及医护人员(HCWs)的流感疫苗接种率。
我们分析了从2003年西班牙国家健康调查中抽取的27,791份针对6个月及以上人群的调查问卷。作为因变量,我们采用了对“你(或你的孩子)在上次流感疫苗接种活动中接种流感疫苗了吗?”这一问题的回答。自变量包括年龄组、性别、国籍、职业(医护人员)以及慢性病共存情况。
总样本的总体流感疫苗接种率为19.58%。儿童人群的接种率为5.55%,患有慢性病的儿童接种率为20.74%,未患慢性病的儿童接种率为4.67%。接种率分别为:65岁及以上人群中为63.7%;65岁以下高危人群中为30.5%;医护人员中为19.65%。
我们得出结论,现有结果表明65岁以下高危人群,尤其是儿童和医护人员的流感疫苗接种率较低。
