Abstract

 Background: Although seasonal infl uenza vaccination decreases infection rate and associated complications, its coverage rate is suboptimal in healthcare workers worldwide. Objectives: The present study aimed at assessing the predictors of infl uenza vaccination and reasons for accepting or refusing it among Nursing Staff . Methods: The present study was conducted from February to March 2019 on nurses of three teaching hospitals affi liated to Kerman University of Medical Sciences in the Southeast of Iran. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire, including demographic data, knowledge, and attitude toward infl uenza and its vaccine, and reasons for accepting or refusing the vaccine. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 22. Independent samples t-and the chi-squared tests and the binary logistic regression were employed for data analysis. Results: The infl uenza vaccination coverage rate was 10. 1% among the Nursing Staff . Male gender (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 4. 77, 95% confi dence interval (CI) =2. 13-10. 64), receiving a recommendation for infl uenza vaccination in hospital (AOR = 1. 86, 95% CI = 1. 06-3. 26), infl uenza vaccination of the family members (AOR = 2. 61, 95% CI = 1. 55-4. 41), and a higher score of attitude toward infl uenza vaccination (AOR = 1. 05, 95% CI = 1. 03-1. 07) increased the likelihood of infl uenza vaccination in the Nursing Staff . Fear of vaccine adverse eff ects (64. 7%), lack of trust in vaccine manufacturers (36. 0%), and being healthy (29. 7%) were the most common reasons for refusing vaccination. Likewise, self-protection (79. 6%), patient protection (73. 0%), and family protection (72. 4%) were the most common reasons for undergoing vaccination. The odds of infl uenza vaccine uptake was four times more among males than females (AOR = 4. 77, 95% CI = 2. 13-10. 64), and odds of infl uenza vaccination was 1. 86 times more among Nursing Staff receiving recommendations for infl uenza vaccination in hospital than the ones not receiving such recommendations (AOR = 1. 86, 95% CI = 1. 06-3. 26). Also, odds of infl uenza vaccination increased 2. 73 times in Nursing Staff whose family members received infl uenza vaccine (AOR = 2. 61, 95% CI = 1. 55-4. 41). Furthermore, the model showed that one unit increase in the attitude score increased odds of infl uenza vaccination by 1. 05 units (AOR = 1. 05, 95% CI = 1. 03-1. 07). Conclusions: The infl uenza vaccination rate was suboptimal among the Nursing Staff . Also, there were poor knowledge and improper attitude toward infl uenza and its vaccine among healthcare workers. Therefore, appropriate policies should be made at national and regional levels on increasing the rate of infl uenza vaccination.
