Abstract
MOLINA-HURTADO, Enrique et al. Vaccine coverage rates against human papillomavirus in Andalusian adolescents and their relationship with social risk and vaccination strategy. Rev Clin Med Fam [online]. 2021, vol.14, n.2, pp.81-84. Epub July 26, 2021. ISSN 2386-8201.
Objective:
To ascertain the vaccination coverage rates against human papillomavirus (HPV) and its relationship with the vaccination strategy and belonging to poverty areas.
Design:
Descriptive study, audit of medical records.
Setting:
Four urban Primary Care centres (2015-2018).
Participants:
Adolescents susceptible to HPV vaccination.
Main measurements:
Vaccination Access, Coverage and Dropout Rates.
Results:
366 adolescents (12-16 years). Vaccination Rates: Access 85.5%; Coverage 77,6% and Dropout 9,3%. The oldest adolescents had higher Access (OR 6,1) and Coverage Rates (OR 1,4). Vaccination at the Primary Care centre was associated with a better Coverage Rate (OR 12,7) but the Vaccine Dropout Rate (OR 75,6) significantly increased. Living in a poverty area led to a decrease in Dropout Rate (OR 0,6).
Conclusions:
Vaccination in Primary Care centres improved the coverage rate but with a higher risk of not completing the vaccination. Adolescents in poverty areas completed vaccination more frequently.
