Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 12
Abstract
Pneumonia (pneumonitis) is an infectious disease that often attacks children under five. One way to prevent and control pneumonia cases is through the Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) immunization program targeting toddlers aged two months to 12 months. However, the achievement of Universal Child Immunization (UCI) in Metro Lampung, Indonesia, is below the target. This research aims to determine the factors that influence the participation of mothers of toddlers aged 2-12 months in the PCV immunization program. This cross-sectional study was conducted on 208 patients with mothers of toddlers aged 2-12 months in the PCV immunization program in Metro Lampung, Indonesia, from July to October 2023. Variable measurements were carried out using a questionnaire. The chi-square test and logistic regression were used for data analysis. The research results show that factors that have a significant influence on the participation of mothers of toddlers aged 2-12 months in the PCV program are knowledge (OR= 7.32; 95% CI= 3.38-18.85), family support OR=6, 71; 95% CI=3.09-14.57) and exposure to information media (OR=4.28; 95% CI=1.94-9.42). Mothers with toddlers aged 2-12 months should participate in the PCV program to prevent pneumonia in children.
