ObjectiveTo investigate the related knowledge, attitudes and practice (KAP) on rubella and rubella vaccine among reproductive aged women, so as to provide evidence for control and intervention project.
MethodsFrom May to June in 2017, 334 reproductive aged women (19-45 years old) of Yiwu city received questionnaire survey on their knowledge, attitudes and practice on rubella and rubella vaccine.The data were analyzed through descriptive epidemiological method, one-way ANOVA and logistic regression by Epidata 3.0 and SPSS 23.0.
ResultsA total of 332 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective rate of 99.40%. And 72 subjects had heard of rubella, with a rate of 21.60%. One-way ANOVA analysis showed that the education level (F=17.621, P < 0.01), average monthly income (F=7.484, P < 0.01) and occupation (F=14.661, P < 0.01) had significantly influence on KAP score. By further multivariate logistic regression model, occupation had negative influence (OR < 1, P < 0.05) on KAP score level while the education level was positive (OR=2.587, P < 0.001).In the survey, only 28 of them (48.28%) would like to be vaccinated. The reason for unwilling to be vaccinated was that no one had been vaccinated round about (33.33%) and all worried about the safety of vaccine (20.00%).By the day of survey, only 5 people (1.51%) were vaccinated.For the rest of them, it was that they did not know where to get vaccinated (18.87%) and worried about the vaccine safety (13.21%), which were the main reasons of unvaccination.In terms of health education publicity, the most interested content for them were the safety and effectiveness of the vaccine, and the most popular form of publicity was WeChat media.
ConclusionThe overall awareness on rubella and its vaccination with the subjects of Yiwu City proves to be insufficient.And education level is the key influence factor.We should make use of Wechat and community presentations, promote the rubella vaccine and cognitive intervention in the high-risk groups, enlarge the popularization rate of related knowledge, and strengthen the self-protection consciousness before pregnancy, so as to better control and prevent rubella and congenital rubella syndrome.
