Evaluation of a Tdap-IPV (Tetanus, Diphteria, Pertussis and Inactivated Polio) Vaccination Remedial Strategy on Vaccination Coverage in Patients 65 Years of Age or Older
Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier le Mans
Summary
In France, vaccination coverage is insufficient (in 2002, 71.2% coverage for tetanus, 41.9% for poliomyelitis and 33.7% for diphteria). These numbers decrease significantly with age: coverage for people aged over 65 was 60.5%, 13.3% and 10.5% for tetanus, poliomyelitis and diphteria coverage respectively. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of a hospital based vaccination remedial strategy for Tdap-IPV (tetanus, diphteria, pertussis and polio vaccine) in patients 65 years of age or older. Secondary objectives are to measure the vaccination coverage of patients aged 65 years or older hospitalised in a medical ward in our hospital, to evaluate their knowledge of their vaccination coverage, and to evaluate the socio-demographic factors associated with vaccination coverage.
