Background:Childhood non-vaccination can have different short-and long-term negative outcomes on their health. In Ethiopia, in addition to low coverage of full vaccination, street children were among the neglected part of the community who were missed during planning and reporting vaccination coverage. Moreover, there is no related research conducted on this title specifically. Objective:The objective of the study was to assess the vaccination status and its associated factors among street children 9-24 months old in Sidama zone. Methods:Community-based cross-sectional study design was conducted in four selected towns of Sidama region, southern Ethiopia. The convenience sampling method was applied to involve mothers of street children younger than two years during the study period. Data entry was done with EpiData version 3.1 and exported to SPSS22 for analysis. Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analysis were performed to identify factors associated with immunization status of street children. Results:A significant number (26 [24.3%]) of the street children younger than two years were not vaccinated. Those mothers who are ≤20 years old (P = 0.014, AOR = 0.216, 95% CI: 0.064-0.732) and who gave birth at home (P = 0.029, AOR = 0.292, 95% CI: 0.097-0.879) had less odds of vaccinating their child than those older than 20 and who gave birth at health facility respectively. Conclusion:A significant number of the street children in this study are not fully vaccinated. Mothers aged <20 years and home births were significantly associated with non-vaccination status.

背景:儿童未接种疫苗可能会对他们的健康产生不同的短期和长期负面影响。在埃塞俄比亚,除了全面接种疫苗的覆盖率低外,流浪儿童是社区中被忽略的一部分,在计划和报告接种疫苗覆盖率时被遗漏了。而且,还没有对此标题进行专门的相关研究。
目的:本研究的目的是评估西达玛州9-24个月大的街头儿童的疫苗接种状况及其相关因素。
方法:在埃塞俄比亚南部锡达玛地区的四个选定城镇中进行了基于社区的横断面研究设计。在研究期间,便利抽样方法被用于涉及不到两岁的流浪儿童的母亲。数据输入使用EpiData 3.1版完成,并导出到SPSS22进行分析。进行了双变量和多变量logistic回归分析,以确定与流浪儿童免疫状况相关的因素。
结果:相当多(26 [24.3%])岁以下的街头儿童未接种疫苗。 ≤20岁(P = 0.014,AOR = 0.216,95%CI:0.064-0.732)且在家分娩(P = 0.029,AOR = 0.292,95%CI:0.097-0.879)的母亲较少给他们的孩子接种疫苗的几率分别高于20岁和在卫生机构分娩的孩子。
结论:本研究中有相当数量的流浪儿童没有完全接种疫苗。年龄小于20岁的母亲和家庭生育与非疫苗接种状态显着相关。
