The purpose of this study was to ascertain the determinants of nursing students' compliance with flu vaccination.
In this cross-sectional study, an anonymous paper questionnaire was administered to students attending the 3-year nursing course at the University of Palermo. Adjusted Odds Ratios (aOR) are presented.
403 nursing students (65% female) completed the questionnaire (response rate 98.5%). The average age of the respondents was 22.0 years (SD ± 3.04). The dependent variable: "In the next season, do you intend to be vaccinated against flu? Yes", displayed a statistically significant association with the following independent variables: "year of study: second" (aOR 2.66), "year of study: third" (aOR 1.72), "Perceived health status: medium-high" (aOR 6.61), "Did you get vaccinated against seasonal flu last year? Yes" (aOR 22.47).
Although nursing students are not yet health professionals, they spend part of their time in health facilities for their clinical training and will be the health workers of the future. Involving nursing students in influenza vaccination campaigns can also help them take better care of themselves and their patients.
本研究旨在确定护理学生接种流感疫苗的决定因素。
在这项横断面研究中，向巴勒莫大学三年制护理课程的学生发放了匿名纸质问卷。呈现了调整后的优势比（aOR）。
403 名护理学生（65%为女性）完成了问卷（应答率为 98.5%）。受访者的平均年龄为 22.0 岁（SD ± 3.04）。因变量：“在下一个季节，你打算接种流感疫苗吗？是”，与以下独立变量呈统计学显著关联：“学习年限：第二年”（aOR 2.66），“学习年限：第三年”（aOR 1.72），“感知健康状况：中高水平”（aOR 6.61），“你去年接种过季节性流感疫苗吗？是”（aOR 22.47）。
尽管护理学生还不是卫生专业人员，但他们在临床培训期间会在卫生机构中度过一部分时间，并且将成为未来的卫生工作者。让护理学生参与流感疫苗接种活动，也可以帮助他们更好地照顾自己和患者。
