摘要
目的:本系统评价和荟萃分析的目的是确定尼日利亚卫生保健专业人员中COVID-19疫苗犹豫的患病率。方法:在PubMed、Scopus、Cochrane图书馆和非洲医学索引中进行了广泛的语言无限制文献检索,以确定报告尼日利亚卫生保健工作者对COVID-19疫苗犹豫不决的研究。质量评估采用纽卡斯尔-渥太华量表进行横断面研究。采用随机效应模型进行单臂meta分析。结果:在206篇文献中,22篇文献共纳入20,724名受试者。COVID-19疫苗犹豫的总患病率为75% (95% CI: 61% ~ 88%, I2 = 99.69%, P < 0.001)。犹豫的原因包括担心副作用、缺乏信任和安全性,分别占76% (CI: 0.57-0.94, I2 = 99.24%, P < 0.001)、55% (CI: 0.042-0.272, I2 = 97.42%, P < 0.001)和68% (CI: 0.047-0.89, I2 = 98.59%, P < 0.001)。结论:尼日利亚医护人员对COVID-19疫苗接种存在明显犹豫;因此,应制定提高卫生保健工作者接受疫苗接种的战略。
Prevalence of COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy Among Healthcare Workers in Nigeria: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Objective: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to determine the prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy among Nigerian healthcare professionals.
Methods: An extensive language-unrestricted literature search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, the Cochrane Library, and the African Index Medicus to identify studies reporting hesitancy to COVID-19 vaccines among healthcare workers in Nigeria. Quality assessment was performed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale for cross-sectional studies. A single-arm meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model.
Results: Of the 206 articles, 22 publications with 20,724 participants were included. The pooled prevalence of COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy was 75% (95% CI: 61%-88%, I2 = 99.69%, P < 0.001). Reasons for hesitancy, including concerns about side effects, lack of trust, and safety, were prevalent at 76% (CI: 0.57-0.94, I2 = 99.24%, P < 0.001), 55% (CI: 0.042-0.272, I2 = 97.42%, P < 0.001), and 68% (CI: 0.047-0.89, I2 = 98.59%, P < 0.001), respectively.
Conclusion: There was significant hesitancy among Nigerian healthcare workers towards COVID-19 vaccination; thus, strategies to increase vaccination acceptance among healthcare workers should be developed.
