INTRODUCTION: The improvement in the vaccination levels against influenza depend on the knowledge had on why the target population rejects vaccination. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A descriptive and cross-sectional study on influenza vaccination prevalence in people over 59 years, in the assigned quota of a Primary Health Center during the year 2005 campaign. RESULTS: A total of 557 individuals were analyzed of these, 57.8% (n = 322) had received the influenza vaccine, while 42.2% (n = 235) were not vaccinated during the study period. The main reasons for rejection of vaccination were no colds and fear a worsening of baseline conditions. DISCUSSION: Rejection of the influenza vaccination is not due to scientific reasons, and therefore vaccination levels can improve through better information.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Comparar niveles de péptido urinario tipo B (BNP) en orina según la presencia de disfunción sistólica ventricular izquierda e investigar su valor diagnóstico en pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca (IC). Introducción: La mejora en los niveles de vacunación frente a la gripe pasa por conocer los motivos por los cuales la población diana rechaza la vacunación. Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo y transversal acerca de la prevalencia de la vacunación antigripal en personas mayores de 59 años, en un cupo de un Centro de Salud del Área 4 de Madrid durante la campaña del año 2005. Resultados: Se analizó un total de 557 individuos. El 57,8% (n = 322) había recibido la vacuna antigripal, mientras que el 42,2% (n = 235) no fueron vacunados durante el periodo de estudio. Los principales motivos para el rechazo de la vacunación fueron la ausencia de catarros y el temor a un empeoramiento del estado basal. Discusión: El rechazo a la vacunación de la gripe no se debe a razones científicas, y por lo tanto los niveles de vacunación pueden mejorar mediante una mejora de la información (AU)
