Abstract

Background and aim: MEASLES is an acute and highly contagious viral disease and although its morbidity remarkably decreased, it is still common in children of developing countries and is a main cause of mortality in children. The purpose of this study was to determine MEASLES IMMUNITY in new-born infants and infants with 6 months age from Yasouj.Methods: This longitudinal study was conducted in 2004-2005. A consent form was filled in by children's parents and subsequently 3 ml of maternal and cord blood was collected from a total of 94 full-term pregnant women and their neonates who attended the labor ward of Emam Sajad hospital, Yasouj, to test using ELISA. Anti-Measles antibody was tested for 77 of the NEWBORNs. Data were analyzed using t, X2, Fisher and Correlation tests.Results: 43.9 % of the mothers and 48.9% of the NEWBORNs were immune to MEASLES at the time of delivery, but only 10.4% of infants were immune at the age of 6 months (P<0.001). There was a significant relationship between mothers' antibody titer and their NEWBORN (P<0.001).There was a significant difference in the level of MEASLES IMMUNITY between the mothers and the NEWBORNs (P<0.05). Birth-weight, sex, birth order, place of mother's residence and mother age had no significant effect on MEASLES IMMUNITY of the infants.Conclusion: Regarding the low IMMUNITY level of the neonates at the birth time and at the 6 month age, postpone of beginning of vaccination against MEASLES is not good idea and it may increase the risk of the disease in the children under one year.
