Abstract:
Objective:To systematically evaluate the willingness to receive influenza vaccines among Chinese medical staff, so as to provide the evidence for developing the influenza vaccination strategy and improving the coverage of influenza vaccination among medical staff.
Methods:Publications pertaining to the willingness to receive influenza vaccines among Chinese medical staff were retrieved from international and national databases from January 1, 2010 to October 1, 2023, including CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, Web of Science and Embase. A meta-analysis was performed using the software Stata 17.0, sensitivity analysis was performed using the leave-one-out method, and the publication bias was evaluated using Funnel plot.
Results:Totally 674 publications were retrieved, and 17 case-control studies were finally enrolled, with 23 697 participants. Meta-analysis showed that the rate of willingness to receive influenza vaccines among medical staff in China was 52.8% (95%CI: 41.3%-64.4%). The rates of willingness to receive influenza vaccines were 40.2% (95%CI: 28.5%-51.8%) in 2019 and before and 67.2% (95%CI: 56.5%-77.9%) in 2020 and beyond; 54.6% (95%CI: 44.2%-65.0%) in men and 56.8% (95%CI: 49.3%-64.4%) in women; 53.6% (95%CI: 40.9%-66.2%) in doctors, 53.9% (95%CI: 41.0%-66.8%) in nurses, 62.8% (95%CI: 46.2%-79.3%) in technicians and 53.1% (95%CI: 36.1%-70.0%) in administrative and logistical staff; 77.4% (95%CI: 63.7%-91.2%) and 43.3% (95%CI: 30.5%-56.1%) in staff with and without a history of influenza vaccination; 49.8% (95%CI: 27.3%-72.3%) and 58.3% (95%CI: 43.9%-72.6%) in studies with a sample size of <1 000 and ≥1 000, and these differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Sensitivity analysis showed robustness of results, and Funnel plot showed publication bias.
Conclusion:The rates of willingness to receive influenza vaccines among medical staff in China ranged from 41.3% to 64.4%, and were lower in studies in 2019 and before, in men, in administrative and logistical staff and in staff without a history of influenza vaccination.
