事实证明，疫苗接种是改善全球儿童健康的最具成本效益的措施之一。坚持为儿童接种疫苗有可能在全球范围内每年预防约 150 万名儿童死亡。本研究旨在评估加纳 12-23 个月龄儿童疫苗接种完全覆盖率的趋势和决定因素。该研究基于四轮加纳人口和健康调查（GDHS 1998、2003、2008 和 2014）的数据。从儿童档案中提取了 5,119 名 12-23 个月龄儿童的信息。进行双变量和多变量分析以评估与完全疫苗接种相关的因素，统计显着性为 p<0.05。我们发现，疫苗接种完全覆盖率从 1998 年的 85.1% 上升到 2014 年的 95.2%。 母亲在农村地区的儿童 [aOR = 0.45；aOR = 0.45； CI = 0.33–0.60] 与母亲在城市地区的人相比，获得完整疫苗接种的几率较低。此外，母亲受过中等教育的孩子[aOR = 1.87； CI = 1.39–2.50] 与母亲未受过正规教育的人相比，接受完整疫苗接种的几率更高。母亲是传统主义者的孩子 [aOR = 0.60；与母亲是基督徒的孩子相比，CI = 0.42–0.84] 或没有宗教信仰 [aOR = 0.58，CI = 0.43–0.79] 接受完整疫苗接种的几率较低。研究显示，从 1998 年到 2014 年，加纳的全面疫苗接种覆盖率有所提高。母亲的居住地、教育程度和宗教信仰与儿童期全面疫苗接种显着相关。尽管儿童全面疫苗接种率有所提高，但必须改善健康教育，并将妇幼保健服务扩大到农村地区和未受过正规教育的妇女，以进一步提高加纳的全面疫苗接种覆盖率。
Vaccination is proven to be one of the most cost-effective measures adopted to improve the health of children globally. Adhering to vaccines for children has the propensity to prevent about 1.5 million annual child deaths globally. This study sought to assess the trend and determinants of complete vaccination coverage among children aged 12–23 months in Ghana. The study was based on data from four rounds of the Ghana Demographic and Health Survey (GDHS 1998, 2003, 2008, and 2014). Information on 5,119 children aged 12–23 months were extracted from the children’s files. Both bivariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to assess the factors associated with complete vaccination and statistical significance was pegged at p<0.05. We found that complete vaccination coverage increased from 85.1% in 1998 to 95.2% in 2014. Children whose mothers were in rural areas [aOR = 0.45; CI = 0.33–0.60] had lower odds of getting complete vaccination, compared to those whose mothers were in urban areas. Also, children whose mothers had a secondary level of education [aOR = 1.87; CI = 1.39–2.50] had higher odds of receiving complete vaccination, compared to those whose mothers had no formal education. Children whose mothers were either Traditionalists [aOR = 0.60; CI = 0.42–0.84] or had no religion [aOR = 0.58, CI = 0.43–0.79] had lower odds of receiving complete vaccination, compared to children whose mothers were Christians. The study revealed that there has been an increase in the coverage of complete vaccination from 1998 to 2014 in Ghana. Mother’s place of residence, education, and religious affiliation were significantly associated with full childhood vaccination. Although there was an increase in complete childhood vaccination, it is imperative to improve health education and expand maternal and child health services to rural areas and among women with no formal education to further increase complete vaccination coverage in Ghana.
