Factors influencing parents' decision on their children's vaccination against seasonal influenza : a systematic reviewMeng, Yue, 孟玥 January 2013 (has links)
Introduction: Seasonal influenza is believed to be a common attribution of morbidity and mortality in the children population, and it causes huge disease burden worldwide. Although seasonal influenza vaccination is recommended as the most effective prevention by the World Health Organization and vaccination programs for children have been introduced in many countries, vaccination coverage remains low. Parents are primary decision makers for their children's immunization, therefore it is important to understand the determinants that influence parents' decision-making to provide important information for promoting vaccination uptake against seasonal influenza among children.
Objective: To synthesize factors that influence parental decision on children's vaccination against seasonal influenza from published literature.
Method: Literature reported factors that influenced parental decision on children's vaccination against seasonal influenza published before/on 31th May, 2013 were searched in PubMed and Web of Science databases. Manual searching was also performed for the citations of the retrieved papers. Both qualitative and quantitative articles consistent with the objective were searched from PubMed and Web of Science databases on 31th May, 2013. Records were screened in the sequence of title, abstract and full text to identify eligible studies, and references of eligible studies were also scrutinized to avoid missing important articles. Influencing factors were extracted from included papers, and the identified factors that influenced parental decision making were then discussed based on theoretical behavioral models.
Results: Totally 32 articles met the inclusion criteria. Factors associated with parental decision included demographic factors, which consisted of parental and children’s age, parental gender, ethnicity, household income, residence, insurance status, family characters, parental education level, and children’s health history; psychological factors, including attitudes towards influenza vaccination, knowledge of influenza and vaccination, perceived risk of seasonal influenza, and emotional factors; past behaviors comprising previous frequency of using health care services, children’s seasonal influenza vaccination history, previous absenteeism from school or work, social norm referring cues to action and subjective norms; and environmental factors, meaning access to vaccination facilities.
Discussion: An integrated framework based on the Health Belief Model, Triandis’ Theory of Interpersonal Behavior and the Theory of Reasoned Action was constructed to explain the findings. The framework proposes that the parents’ intention to vaccinate their children against seasonal influenza is influenced by demographic variables, attitude towards seasonal influenza vaccination, knowledge and perception of influenza/influenza vaccine, social norms (cues to action and subjective norms), emotion, and past behavior/experience; easy access to vaccination providers as a facilitating condition additionally determine the possibility of turning intention into actual behavior. Interventions such as providing positive knowledge relevant to seasonal influenza vaccination, targeting less intended and more influential decision-makers, ensuring sufficient access to vaccination, and creating action cues may be implemented to promote uptake of seasonal influenza vaccination among children. / published_or_final_version / Public Health / Master / Master of Public Health

Rural School Employees' Awareness and Perceptions of Adult Vaccinations: A District-Wide StudyThornton, Eli Gary 11 April 2013 (has links) (PDF)
As key members of the school environment, it is important for school employees to be vaccinated. Employees are in direct contact with children in close quarters for long periods of time and such an environment can easily serve as an outbreak center for vaccine-preventable communicable diseases such as measles. Despite the fact that most school employees believe vaccines are safe and effective and many school employees report they are up-to-date with their vaccines, a closer examination reveals discrepancy between belief and behavior. As a vaccine advocate, the school nurse can be influential in providing adult vaccination education for school employees, thus increasing awareness of the importance of adult vaccines and knowing one's vaccination status. Additionally, school nurses might need to meet with school district policymakers to promote vaccine mandates for school employees and to assist in the creation of containment plans in the event of a measles outbreak at school.

Vaccination Perceptions and Barriers of School Employees: A Pilot StudyHoule, Kim Cranney 22 February 2013 (has links) (PDF)
Schools are group settings where vaccine-preventable diseases can spread quickly, especially if vaccination rates are suboptimal. Vaccination of school children has been the subject of many studies; however, data are lacking regarding the vaccination status, vaccination perceptions, and potential barriers to vaccination for school employees. Method: A questionnaire was developed to measure school employees' perceptions,awareness of current vaccination status, and potential barriers to vaccinations. This study included a convenience sample of 277 employees from a small urban school district located in central Utah. Results: Adult vaccination knowledge is lacking in the school employee population, with over half believing they were fully vaccinated even though 57.8% had not had an influenza vaccination this season. Many school employees were unaware of their vaccination status for highly virulent diseases such as measles and pertussis. In addition, most subjects believed vaccinations were safe and effective, although they believed vaccinations were more important for children than adults. Almost half of respondents believed vaccine mandates should exist for school employees. Conclusion: Knowledge gaps regarding adult vaccines can be positively influenced by nurses, especially school nurses. These knowledge gaps may be especially important to bridge concerning adults working in the school setting, an environment ideal for the spreading of communicable diseases.
