The aim of the study was to become familiar with parents' and Medical Health Care specialists knowledge and attitude towards vaccinations. The influence of information, provided to patients from various sources, on general opinion about immunization and its coverage within the last year were evaluated.
Analysis of questionnaires about vaccinations performed among 151 parents and 180 Medical Health Care specialists.
Medical Health Care specialists knowledge was considerably higher in comparison to questioned parents. Surprisingly enough, only approximately 90% of Medical Health Care workers knew about prophylaxis of Hib infections. A doctor is the main and the most reliable source of information for parents. Significant impact on parents' attitude to vaccinations is made not only by campaigns promoting vaccinations, but also by widespread opinions about their harmfulness.
The doctor is the major source of reliable information about vaccinations for parents. Therefore, there is the need of continuous improvement of Medical Health Care specialists knowledge, but also the ability of successfully communicating it to parents.
本研究的目的是熟悉家长和医疗卫生保健专家对疫苗接种的知识和态度。评估了来自各种来源向患者提供的信息对过去一年中关于免疫接种的总体看法及其覆盖率的影响。
对151名家长和180名医疗卫生保健专家进行的关于疫苗接种的问卷调查分析。
与接受询问的家长相比,医疗卫生保健专家的知识水平要高得多。令人惊讶的是,只有大约90%的医疗卫生保健工作者了解B型流感嗜血杆菌感染的预防措施。医生是家长主要且最可靠的信息来源。不仅推广疫苗接种的活动,而且关于其有害性的广泛观点,都对家长对疫苗接种的态度产生重大影响。
医生是家长获取疫苗接种可靠信息的主要来源。因此,不仅需要持续提高医疗卫生保健专家的知识水平,还需要提高他们成功与家长沟通的能力。
