在尼日利亚的拉各斯，在Oguntolu诊所和Randle路健康中心对120名尼日利亚儿童进行了研究，探讨了影响到初级卫生保健诊所就诊的因素。免疫水平是衡量到诊所就诊的频率（规律性）的一个尺度。某些社会经济、心理和人口因素是影响入学的主要因素。在完全免疫的人中，家庭规模较小，父母受过教育，母亲较年轻，男孩比例较高。家庭保健工作者负责提早和定期到诊所就诊。对疾病症状严重性的认识是影响就诊的一个主要心理因素。一个预测模型识别高需求，但低用户和低需求，但高用户，以促进制定更现实的初级卫生保健计划的优先事项和政策。
Factors affecting the attendance at primary health care clinics in Lagos, Nigeria, were studied at Oguntolu Clinic and Randle Road Health Center among 120 Nigerian children. The level of immunization was a measure of the frequency (regularity) of attendance at the clinics. Certain socioeconomic, psychological and demographic factors were the major factors affecting attendance. Among those fully immunized, the family sizes were low, the mothers and fathers were educated, the mothers were younger, and a higher proportion of the children were boys. The family health workers were responsible for earlier and regular attendance at the clinic. The perception of the severity of symptoms of disease was a major psychological factor affecting attendance. A predictive model for the identification of high need but low users and low need but high users is presented to facilitate the formulation of more realistic primary health care program priorities and policies.
