immunization status of health professionals and technicians belonging to the health team from state hospitals of the province of cordoba, argentina |
description |
Objective: To determine the immunization status of health professionals and technicians belonging to the health team from state hospitals of the province of Cordoba regarding Hepatitis B vaccine; Measles and Rubella vaccine; Measles, Mumps and Rubella Vaccine (MMR); Diphtheria and Tetanus vaccine (DT); and influenza (flu) vaccine. Methods: A cross sectional study was carried out on a sample of 844 workers from public hospitals belonging to the Ministry of Health of the province of Cordoba during the years 2013 and 2014. A self administered questionnaire was used and univariate analysis and bivariate analysis were done. For the assessment of factors associated with vaccination, chi square statistics was applied; a 5% margin of error was defined (p < 0.05) and a confidence interval of 95 %. Results: The proportion of professionals and technicians with coverage was: Diphtheria and Tetanus Vaccine (DT) 87.2%, Hepatitis B vaccine 77.6%, MMR vaccine or Measles and Rubella vaccine 69.0% and influenza vaccine 55.2%. Better immunization status was found among those with higher education, less seniority, and younger age with significant differences regarding sex in hepatitis B and less seniority in Measles and Rubella vaccine. Conclusion: The workers studied present an immunization status below the one internationally recommended. However, it is similar or higher to the level reported in different countries, showing that the under-coverage of health professionals is an outspread problem that must be prioritized by the authorities, given the implications for the workers themselves and the population they assist. |

Cobertura de vacunación Personal de salud Vacunas Exposición Ocupacional Cobertura vacinal Pessoal de saúde Vacinas Exposição Ocupacional Immunization coverage Health staff Vaccines Occupational Exposure Objective: To determine the immunization status of health professionals and technicians belonging to the health team from state hospitals of the province of Cordoba regarding Hepatitis B vaccine; Measles and Rubella vaccine; Measles, Mumps and Rubella Vaccine (MMR); Diphtheria and Tetanus vaccine (DT); and influenza (flu) vaccine.

Objetivo: Determinar el estado de vacunación de los profesionales y técnicos del equipo de salud de hospitales estatales de la provincia de Córdoba respecto de las vacunas contra la hepatitis B, la triple o doble viral, la doble bacteriana y antiinfluenza. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio de corte transversal, sobre una muestra de 844 trabajadores de hospitales públicos pertenecientes al ministerio de salud de la provincia de Córdoba, durante los años 2013 y 2014. Se aplicó un cuestionario auto-administrado y se realizaron análisis univariados y bivariados. Para la evaluación de factores asociados con la vacunación se aplicó el estadístico chi cuadrado, definiéndose un margen de error del 5% (p < 0,05) y un intervalo de confianza del 95%. Resultados: La proporción de profesionales y técnicos con coberturas fueron: doble bacteriana 87,2%, anti hepatitis B 77,6%, triple o doble viral 69,0% y antiinfluenza el 55,2%. En todas se encontró un mejor estado de vacunación entre quienes poseen mayor educación, menor antigüedad, los más jóvenes, con diferencias significativas según sexo a hepatitis B, y con menos antigüedad en la doble viral. Conclusión: Los trabajadores estudiados poseen un estado de vacunación inferior al recomendado internacionalmente, sin embargo resultó similar o superior al reportado en diversos países, poniendo de manifiesto que la sub-cobertura de vacunación en el personal sanitario es una problemática extendida, que debe ser priorizada por las autoridades, dadas las implicancias para el propio trabajador y la población que atienden. Escopo: Determinar o estado de vacinação de profissionais e técnicos da equipe de saú- de de hospitais públicos na província de Córdoba respeito de vacinas contra a hepatite B, a dupla ou tríplice viral, a dupla bacteriana e a anti-gripal. Métodos: Um estudo transversal em uma amostra de 844 trabalhadores de hospitais públicos pertencentes ao Ministério da Saúde da província de Córdoba foi realizado durante os anos de 2013 e 2014. Empregou-se um questionário auto-administrado e foram realizadas análises univariadas e bivariadas. Para avaliar os fatores associados à vacinação aplicou-se o chi-quadrado estatístico, definindo-se uma margem de erro de 5% (p < 0,05) e um intervalo de confiança de 95%. Resultados: A proporção de profissionais e técnicos com coberturas foi a seguinte: duplo bacteriana 87,2%, anti hepatite B 77,6%, tríplice ou dupla 69,0% e anti-gripal 55,2%. Em todas foi encontrado um melhor estado de vacinação entre aqueles com maiores estudos, menor antiguidade, os mais jovens, com diferenças significativas de acordo com o sexo para a hepatite B, e com menos antiguidade na dupla viral. Conclusão: Os trabalhadores estudados têm um estado de vacinação inferior ao recomendado interna-cionalmente, porém, foi semelhante ou superior ao registrado em vários países, mostrando que a insuficiente cobertura de-vacinação em profissionais de saúde é um problema generalizado que deve ser priorizado pelas autoridades dadas as implicações para o trabalhador e para a população que ele serve.
