To examine the trend of provider-verified HPV vaccine initiation (≥1 dose) and completion (≥3 doses) among adolescent girls at the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommended age (11-12 years).
We analyzed National Immunization Survey of Teens 2008-2012 data and examined the trend of provider-verified HPV vaccine initiation and completion among <13 year old girls.
Data on age at HPV vaccine initiation and completion were available for 24,466 and 15,972 girls, respectively. The weighted proportion of girls who initiated the vaccine at <13 years of age was 14.1%, 24.1%, 35.9%, 47.7% and 55.9% in 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively (p for trend <.001). The similar trend was also observed for mean age at HPV vaccine initiation and completion (p<.001).
Additional efforts are needed to increase HPV vaccine uptake among adolescent girls as only half of them receive this vaccine at ACIP recommended age.
研究在免疫实践咨询委员会(ACIP)建议年龄(11 - 12岁)的青春期女孩中,经医疗服务提供者核实的人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)疫苗开始接种(≥1剂)和完成接种(≥3剂)的趋势。
我们分析了2008 - 2012年青少年国家免疫调查数据,并研究了13岁以下女孩中经医疗服务提供者核实的HPV疫苗开始接种和完成接种的趋势。
分别有24,466名和15,972名女孩提供了HPV疫苗开始接种年龄和完成接种年龄的数据。2008年、2009年、2010年、2011年和2012年,13岁以下开始接种疫苗的女孩加权比例分别为14.1%、24.1%、35.9%、47.7%和55.9%(趋势p值<.001)。HPV疫苗开始接种和完成接种的平均年龄也观察到类似趋势(p<.001)。
需要做出更多努力来提高青春期女孩对HPV疫苗的接种率,因为只有一半的女孩在ACIP建议年龄接种了这种疫苗。
