Factors associated with the incomplete opportune vaccination schedule up to 12 months of age, Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso.

OBJECTIVE

To analyze factors associated with the incomplete timely vaccination schedule up to 12 months of age, in children born in 2015, in the municipality of Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso.

METHODS

Population survey, August/2017 to February/2018, which used the method proposed by the World Health Organization to collect information about routine vaccination. For analysis of the associated factors, the recommendations of the National Immunization Program of the Ministry of Health were considered. Univariate analysis was performed, and the factors associated with p<0.20 entered in the multiple analysis, with hierarchical entry of individual variables and contextual indicator of concentration of the income extremes.

RESULTS

The incomplete timely vaccination schedule up to 12 months was 82.03% (95%CI 78.41-86.63). In the final model, the following remained independently associated: having one or more siblings at home (OR 3.18; 95%CI 1.75-5.76) and not receiving a visit from a community health worker in the last 30 days (OR 1.93; 95%CI 1.04-3.57).

CONCLUSIONS

It is necessary to implement an active search for children with vaccination delay in relation to the recommended interval for each vaccine, in addition to the need to strengthen the link of the family health strategy and child caregivers.
