Abstract

Objective: To access the level of knowledge, perceptions, and practice towards adverse events following immunization (AEFI) surveillance among vaccination workers in Zhejiang province, China. Methods: This was a cross-sectional survey involving 768 vaccination workers. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires and analyzed by using SAS 9.3 software. Knowledge, perceptions, and practice on AEFI surveillance were summarized using frequency tables. The mean±SD value was used as the cut-off for defining good (values⩾mean) and poor (values

浙江省疫苗接种工作者对免疫监测后不良事件的认识、认知和实践

目的：了解浙江省疫苗接种工作人员对免疫接种后不良事件（AEFI）监测的知识、认知和实践水平。方法：这是一项涉及768名疫苗接种工作者的横断面调查。数据采用自填问卷收集，并使用SAS9.3软件进行分析。使用频率表总结了AEFI监测的知识、认知和实践。平均值±SD值被用作定义良好（值⩾平均值）和较差（值<平均值）知识、感知或实践的临界值。二元逻辑回归分析用于确定与AEFI的知识、认知和实践相关的社会人口学变量。结果：良好的AEFI监测知识、认知和实践比例分别为78.13%、57.81%和66.15%。具有较高的教育背景、较长的工作经验、既往接受过AEFI培训以及30岁是与疫苗接种工作者对AEFI监测的良好知识、看法和实践相关的因素。结论：超过一半的受访者对AEFI监测工作有良好的了解、认知和实践。应考虑采取干预措施，提高疫苗接种工作人员对AEFI监测的知识、看法和实践，以建立更有效的监测系统。
