Abstract
Objective: To explore the feasibility and effectiveness of the comprehensive strategies to strengthen the routine immunization program, and to provide the evidence for adjusting the strategies for implementing the project in coming years.
Methods: Five townships were selected from each county according to the location of east, west, south, north and middle. Four villages were selected from each township, and seven children were selected from each village randomly. There were 2215 children were investigated totally.
Results: Compared with results of the baseline survey, the rate of holding immunization card increased from 89.4% to 96.3%. The coverage of 5 kinds of EPI vaccines increased between 10%-35%. The difference of coverage before and after implementing the project was significant P < 0.001. The frequency of cold chain running increased than before implementing the project. The targeted school number of immunization card school entry, the number of children checked, the number of redistributed immunization card, and the number of children catched-up vaccine increased obviously.
Conclusion: The comprehensive strategies of the strengthening routine immunization program have a great effect.
