Application effects of health education in parents of children vaccinated
Objective:To observe application effects of health education in parents of children vaccinated. Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 200 parents of children who were vaccinated in the hospital from June 2020 to June 2021. According to the random number table method,they were divided into control group and observation group,100 cases in each group. The control group received routine vaccination education,while the observation group received the health education before vaccination. The children were followed up to 2 years old. The scores of vaccination knowledge before and after the intervention,the scores of knowledge,attitude and practice after the intervention,the vaccination rate of children and the incidence of adverse reactions of the children were compared between the two groups. Results:After the intervention,0 case was lost in the observation group,and 18 cases were lost in the control group. The vaccination knowledge scores of the two groups were higher than those before the intervention,that in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The scores of vaccination knowledge,vaccination behavior and vaccination attitude in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the vaccination rates of BCG vaccine,hepatitis B vaccine,polio vaccine and DPT vaccine between the two groups (P>0.05). The vaccination rates of measles-mumps-rubella vaccine,hepatitis A vaccine,Japanese encephalitis vaccine,group A meningococcal vaccine,Haemophilus influenzae type B vaccine (HIB),enterovirus 71 inactivated vaccine (EV71),oral rotavirus vaccine (RV),and 13-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The total number of vaccinations in the observation group was 2850 times,and the total number of vaccinations in the control group was 2201 times. The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 1.05% (30/2850),which was lower than 1.95% (43/2201) in the control group and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusions:The health education to the parents of the children vaccinated can increase their]vaccination knowledge,improve their knowledge-attitude-practice scores and the children's vaccination rate,and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions. Moreover,it is superior to the routine vaccination education.
