Vaccination rates in a private hematology clinic were lower than the national average, particularly for at-risk patients. Age and BMI influenced vaccination status, highlighting potential adherence factors.

Area of Science:

  • Hematology
  • Internal Medicine
  • Public Health
  • Vaccinology

Background:

  • Onco-hematological diseases place patients at higher risk for infections.
  • Vaccination is a critical preventive measure for at-risk populations.
  • Understanding vaccination adherence in specialized clinics is crucial for targeted public health interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine vaccination proportions among patients in a private hematology and internal medicine outpatient clinic.
  • To identify potential factors influencing vaccination adherence in at-risk patients with onco-hematological conditions.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional study was conducted with outpatients from May to October 2021.
  • Patients were classified into onco-hematological and non-onco-hematological groups based on primary diagnosis.

  • Vaccination status was analyzed considering national rollout guidelines and patient eligibility.

    • Main Results:

    • 397 participants were enrolled; 269 (68%) had onco-hematological conditions.
    • Overall vaccination history was reported by 72% of participants (82% with two doses).
    • Vaccination status was significantly associated with age (OR 1.07) and body mass index (OR 1.11).

    Conclusions:

    • Vaccination adherence in this private clinic setting differed significantly from national proportions.
    • Factors such as age and BMI may play a role in vaccination adherence among patients.
    • Further research is needed to explore reasons for adherence disparities in specialized outpatient clinics.
