Factors associated with the incomplete opportune vaccination schedule up to 12 months of age, Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso / Fatores associados ao esquema vacinal oportuno incompleto até os 12 meses de idade, Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso

Abstract Objective: To analyze factors associated with the incomplete timely vaccination schedule up to 12 months of age, in children born in 2015, in the municipality of Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso. Methods: Population survey, August/2017 to February/2018, which used the method proposed by the World Health Organization to collect information about routine vaccination. For analysis of the associated factors, the recommendations of the National Immunization Program of the Ministry of Health were considered. Univariate analysis was performed, and the factors associated with p<0.20 entered in the multiple analysis, with hierarchical entry of individual variables and contextual indicator of concentration of the income extremes. Results: The incomplete timely vaccination schedule up to 12 months was 82.03% (95%CI 78.41-86.63). In the final model, the following remained independently associated: having one or more siblings at home (OR 3.18; 95%CI 1.75-5.76) and not receiving a visit from a community health worker in the last 30 days (OR 1.93; 95%CI 1.04-3.57). Conclusions: It is necessary to implement an active search for children with vaccination delay in relation to the recommended interval for each vaccine, in addition to the need to strengthen the link of the family health strategy and child caregivers.

RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar fatores associados ao esquema vacinal oportuno incompleto até os 12 meses de idade, em crianças nascidas em 2015, no município de Rondonópolis, Mato Grosso. Métodos: Inquérito populacional, agosto/2017 a fevereiro/2018, que utilizou o método proposto pela Organização Mundial da Saúde para coletar informações sobre a vacinação de rotina. Para analisar os fatores associados, consideraram-se as recomendações do Programa Nacional de Imunização do Ministério da Saúde. Realizou-se análise univariada e os fatores associados com p<0,20 entraram na análise múltipla, com entrada hierarquizada das variáveis individuais e indicador contextual de concentração de extremos de renda. Resultados: O esquema vacinal oportuno incompleto até os 12 meses foi de 82,03% (IC95% 78,41-86,63). No modelo final, permaneceram independentemente associados: possuir um irmão ou mais no domicílio (OR 3,18; IC95% 1,75-5,76) e não receber visita de agente comunitário de saúde nos últimos 30 dias (OR 1,93; IC95% 1,04-3,57). Conclusões: É necessário implementar busca ativa de crianças com atraso vacinal em relação ao intervalo recomendado para cada vacina, além da necessidade de fortalecer o vínculo da estratégia de saúde da família e cuidadores de crianças.

Intensive care unit staff preparedness as an independent factor for death of patients during COVID-19 pandemic: An observational cohort study.

The pandemic of COVID-19 brought to the world an unprecedented challenge. This single center observational study aimed to evaluate the impact of staff preparedness by comparing the outcomes between two intensive care units (ICUs) from a hospital that had to expand ICU beds to deal with an incremented volume of critical patients. Patients consecutively admitted to these ICUs with suspected COVID-19, from March 1st until April 30th, 2020, were included. Both ICUs attended a similar population and had the same facilities, what differed was the staff: one previously well-established (ICU-1) and another recently assembled (ICU-2). 114 patients with severe respiratory syndrome were included. In-hospital mortality was 40%. Compared with patients in the well-established ICU-1, patients in the recently assembled ICU-2 were older (54 versus 61.5, p=0.045), received more antibiotics (93% versus 98%, p=0.001) and chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine 6% versus 30%, p=0.001), had a higher proportion of invasive mechanical ventilation (44% versus 52%, p=0.008) and had greater in-hospital mortality (30% versus 50%, p=0.017). The proportion of patients considered at high risk for death according to PSI was similar between the two ICU populations. Age ≥ 60 years (adjusted OR 2.33; 95% CI 1.02-5.31), need of invasive mechanical ventilation (adjusted OR 2.79; 95% CI 1.22-6.37), and ICU type (recently assembled) (adjusted OR 2.38; 95% CI 1.04-5.44) were independently associated with in-hospital mortality . This finding highlights the importance of developing support strategies to improve preparedness of staff recently assembled to deal with emergencies.
