Facteurs sociodémographiques associés à la vaccination incomplète des enfants de 12 à 59 mois dans six pays d’Afrique de l’ouest

Abstract: Every year, thousands of children worldwide remain unimmunized or partially immunized, especially in developing countries. It therefore appears important to examine soda-demographic factors associated with incomplete immunization of children in West Africa. The present cross-sectional study examined factors associated with incomplete immunization of children aged 12 to 59 months in Cote d'lvoire, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Mali, Guinea, and Liberia, based on Demographic and Health Surveys data. The findings of the s… Show more

“…In this study, mothers who had received information about MCH in the last year–whether from healthcare professionals, other persons, or the media–showed higher odds of completing basic immunization than those who did not. This is supported by previous studies, including in Pakistan, that found contact with health facilities and access to mass media were positively associated with full immunization [ 10 , 16 , 22 , 23 ]. Contact with health facilities is a proxy for interactions with healthcare professionals, which provides an opportunity to receive information about immunization [ 23 , 40 , 41 ].…”

“…Several studies found that substantial health inequity according to socioeconomic status, such as residency [ 9 ], wealth [ 9 11 ], educational status [ 9 , 11 , 12 ], and number of children in a household [ 13 , 14 ], affects immunization coverage. In addition, immunization coverage is influenced by mother and child health information sources, such as antenatal care (ANC) visits [ 15 ] and accessibility to mass media [ 10 , 11 , 16 ].…”

“…Pour Fournier et Haddad (1995), l'amélioration du niveau d'instruction des populations entraine un renforcement de l'utilisation des soins de santé modernes. Également, Douba et al (2015) dans une analyse portant sur des données du Burkina Faso, de la Côte d'Ivoire, du Ghana et de la Guinée concluent que les enfants des mères analphabètes avaient un risque élevé d'être incomplètement vaccinés comparés à ceux des mères alphabètes.…”

“…Des études précédentes réalisées au Bénin, au Kenya, et en Ouganda avaient aussi trouvé que la naissance à domicile constituait un facteur de risque de vaccination incomplète des enfants. Selon Douba et al (2015), l'association entre l'accouchement à domicile et la vaccination incomplète des enfants pourrait s'expliquer par la persistance des facteurs ayant occasionné l'accouchement en dehors d'un centre de santé. En effet, après l'accouchement, si les facteurs ayant entraîné la naissance des enfants à domicile demeurent, les mères ne fréquentent pas ou fréquentent rarement des centres de santé pour des soins préventifs y compris la vaccination qui nécessite cinq visites d'un centre de vaccination pour que l'enfant reçoive la totalité des vaccins du PEV de routine.…”
