■阻止传染病传播的最佳医学方法之一是接种疫苗。在COVID-19大流行期间,医护人员(HCWs)是高危人群.由于他们在工作环境方面的敏感性,一线医护人员应先于他人接种疫苗。
■这项研究的目的是评估2022年埃塞俄比亚医疗保健专业人员对COVID-19疫苗的不良反应。
■在亚的斯亚贝巴卫生设施进行了基于设施的横断面研究设计,埃塞俄比亚。在研究期间,共有290名卫生专业人员接种了疫苗。通过Epidata(3.1版)进行数据输入,并使用SPSS软件版本26进行分析。进行双变量分析,选择小于0.25的p值用于进一步的多变量分析。0.05的p值被认为在95%置信水平下具有统计学意义。
■总共277名研究参与者成功参与了这项研究,产生95.5%的应答率。研究参与者包括123名(44.4%)女性和154名(55.6%)男性。他们中的大多数(202,72.9%)接受了牛津阿斯利康疫苗。在277名研究参与者中,142例(51.3%)出现了与疫苗接种相关的不良反应。其中,81例(29.2%)出现中度不良反应。只有2例(0.7%)出现了导致住院的不良反应。报告最多的短期不良反应是注射部位疼痛(151,54.5%),头痛(114,41.2%),发烧(104,37.5%),疲劳和疲劳(94,33.9%),寒战(92,33.2%),肌肉疼痛(79,28.5%),睡眠质量下降(34,12.3%)。多变量logistic回归分析显示,女性发生不良反应的几率是男性的1.501倍(AOR=1.501,95%CI[1.08,2.754])。
这项研究表明,新冠肺炎疫苗接种后的不良反应程度中等,严重程度最小。这项研究表明,导致住院的不良反应很少见。根据这项研究的结果,建议全国,多中心,prospective,并进行随机研究以评估每种疫苗的独立关联。
One of the best medical approaches for halting the spread of infectious diseases is vaccination. During the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare workers (HCWs) were a high-risk population. Due to their susceptibility in terms of their working environment, front-line healthcare personnel should receive vaccinations before others.
The purpose of this
study was to assess the adverse reactions to COVID-19 vaccines among Ethiopian healthcare professionals in 2022.
A facility-based cross-sectional study design was conducted in Addis Ababa Health Facilities, Ethiopia. A total of 290 health professionals who were vaccinated during the
study period were involved. Data entry was done by Epidata (version 3.1) and analyzed using SPSS software version 26. Bivariable analysis was conducted and a p value of less than 0.25 was selected for further multivariable analysis. A p value of 0.05 was considered statistically significant at a 95% confidence level.
A total of 277
study participants were successfully involved in the
study, yielding a response rate of 95.5%. The
study participants comprised 123 (44.4%) women and 154 (55.6%) men. The majority of them (202, 72.9%) had received the Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine. Among the 277 study participants, 142 (51.3%) had developed adverse reactions associated with vaccination. Of these, 81 (29.2%) had moderate adverse reactions. Only 2 (0.7%) had developed adverse reactions that led to hospitalization. The most reported short-term adverse reactions were injection site pain (151, 54.5%), headache (114, 41.2%), fever (104, 37.5%), fatigability and tiredness (94, 33.9%), chills (92, 33.2%), muscle pain (79, 28.5%), and decreased sleep quality (34, 12.3%). The multivariable logistic regression showed that the odds of having an adverse reaction were 1.501 times higher among women than men (AOR = 1.501, 95% CI [1.08, 2.754]).
This study revealed that adverse effects following the COVID-19 vaccine were moderate in magnitude and minimal in severity. This
study showed that adverse reactions that led to hospitalization were rare. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that national, multicenter, prospective, and randomized studies be conducted to assess the independent association of each vaccine.
