Abstract

Introduction: Considering the importance of Tetanus Vaccination in both children and adults, recognizing the necessities and priorities of Tetanus Vaccination is essential for health care providers. Medical interns play a crucial role in the treatment of hospitalized patients, and as future physicians, should be well informed. This study aims to evaluate the knowledge of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences’ medical interns about Tetanus Vaccination in patients presenting with trauma. Methods: All interns of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences were enrolled in this study. Interns who did not want to participate in the study and those who were on-call, were excluded from the study. Eventually, 250 interns were gathered in a conference hall, and a questionnaire composed of 10 questions was given to them presenting a hypothetical traumatic event. Correct and incorrect answers to each question, and the age, and gender of the interns answering to these questions were analyzed. Results: Only three questions were answered correctly by more than half of the participants; questions number 10, 1, and 2, with 67. 2%, 59. 2%, and 50. 8% of correct answers respectively. On the other hand, 5 questions had less than 20% of correct answers. The maximum overall score was 7. Analysis of these results between the two sexes did not show a significant difference in the number of correct answers and each question’ s correct percentage also did not differ significantly between them. Additionally, age was not shown to be a variable affecting the total score of the participants. Conclusion: Regardless of the age and gender, the knowledge of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences’ medical interns about the precise indications of Tetanus prevention in adults and children is poor.
