Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of measuring vaccination coverage rate is to monitor adequate vaccination status for reducing communicable disease occurrence. So lots of nations surveyed vaccination coverage by the use of various measuring methods, and developed immunization policy and program following to these survey results. This study developed standard Korea National Immunization Survey method for measuring vaccination coverage in national and metropolitan level, and then measured real status, finally, suggested further developmental directions of national standard survey method. Methods: We developed the formal process as a national standard, go through Korean national advisory committee for vaccination and then Statistics Korea. We performed the computer aided telephone interview. The source of information is household-retained vaccination cards. And survey population is 7,040 at 3-year-olds (cohort born in 2007) who registered in national immunization registry system. The unit of sampling is each metropolitan and provincial area using minimum sample size determination method (precision 5%, confidence interval 95%, assumed coverage rate 50%). Results: The national vaccination coverage per dose was 1 dose BCG 98.8%, $1^{st}$ dose Hepatitis B 99.0%, $2^{nd}$ dose Hepatitis B 99.3%, $3^{rd}$ dose Hepatitis B 98.7%, $1^{st}$ DTaP 99.6%, $2^{nd}$ dose DTaP 99.5%, $3^{rd}$ dose DTaP 99.1%, $4^{th}$ dose DTaP 93.5%, $1^{st}$ dose poliovirus 99.4%, $2^{nd}$ dose poliovirus 99.3%, $3^{rd}$ dose poliovirus 98.4%, $1^{st}$ dose MMR 99.2%, 1 dose varicella 97.7%, $1^{st}$ dose Japanese encephalitis 97.9%, $2^{nd}$ dose Japanese encephalitis 95.9%, $3^{rd}$ dose Japanese encephalitis 90.7%. Other vaccination coverage per dose was $1^{st}$ dose Hib 90.9%, $2^{nd}$ dose Hib 87.7%, $3^{rd}$ dose Hib 82.5%, $4^{th}$ dose Hib 69.4%, $1^{st}$ dose Hepatitis A 84.5%, $2^{nd}$ dose Hepatitis A 78.1%, $1^{st}$ dose pneumococcus 67.1%, $2^{nd}$ dose pneumococcus 60.5%, $3^{rd}$ dose pneumococcus 56.7%, $4^{th}$ dose pneumococcus 51.4%, $1^{st}$ dose rotavirus 6.0%, $2^{nd}$ dose rotavirus 5.5%, $3^{rd}$ dose rotavirus 5.1%. In completeness for each vaccine, total 3 doses of Hepatitis B was estimated at 98.2%, 3 doses of DTaP 99.0%, 4 doses of DTaP 93.2%, 3 doses poliovirus of 98.4%. And series vaccination coverage was 95.9% at 3:3:3:1, 91.9% at 4:3:1, 90.4% at 4:3:1:3:1, 88.7% at 4:3:1:3:1:1, 56.3% at 4:3:1:3:1:1:3. Conclusions: The Korean vaccination coverage rates are adequate in terms of the herd immunity. To improve measuring method for national vaccination coverage rate, our nation must have adequate national immunization registry system. So, we can obtain accurate and timely individual immunization records.

예방접종을 통해 감염병 발생 감소나 퇴치를 위해서는 지역사회의 적정수준 이상의 예방접종률 유지가 필요하며, 지역사회의 예방접종률이 적정수준에 있는지를 평가하고 모니터링 하기 위해서 각 국가들은 다양한 방법을 통하여 예방접종률을 조사하고 그 결과를 반영하여 정책 및 대책을 수립하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 우리나라의 국가 및 시도 단위의 예방접종률을 측정할 수 있는 국가표준 조사방법을 결정하고, 이를 통하여 실제 예방접종률을 측정하여 경시적으로 비교할 수 있는 토대를 마련하였으며, 향후 국가표준 조사방법의 발전방향을 제시하고자 시도되었으며 본 연구의 주요 조사방법론과 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 전국 및 시도를 대표할 수 있는 예방접종률로서의 가치를 인정받는 국가표준 예방접종률 조사방법을 개발하여 예방접종전문위원회 심의와 통계청의 승인 (국가통계승인 제01201호)을 받는 등 공식화된 절차를 거쳐 최종 확정하였다. 조사대상자는 3세(2007년 1월~12월 출생자) 아동, 목표모집단은 주민등록인구, 조사모집단은 예방접종등록관리 정보시스템에 등록된 아동으로 하였다. 최소 표본수 산출시 5% p 정밀도, 95 % 신뢰수준, 50% 접종률을 고려하였으며 총 조사 대상자수는 7,040명이었다. 조사방법은 전화조사, 조사 시 자료원은 예방접종수첩이었다. 예방접종률 산출기본 단위는 국가 및 시도로 하였고, 산출지표는 접종별, 차수별 예방접종률과 완전 접종률이었다. 둘째, 국가필수예방접종의 접종별, 차수별 예방접종률은 BCG 1회 98.8%, B형간염 1차 99.0%, B형간염 2차 99.3%, B형간염 3차 98.7%, DTaP 1차 99.6%, DTaP 2차 99.5%, DTaP 3차 99.1%, DTaP 4차 93.5%, 폴리오 1차 99.4%, 폴리오 2차 99.3%, 폴리오 3차 98.4%, MMR 1차 99.2%, 수두 1회 97.7%, 일본뇌염 1차 97.9%, 일본뇌염 2차 95.9%, 일본뇌염 3차 90.7%로 나타났다. 기타예방접종의 접종별, 차수별 예방접종률은 b형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자 뇌수막염 1차 90.9%, 2차 87.7%, 3차 82.5%, 4차 69.4%, A형간염 1차 84.5%, 2차 78.1%, 폐렴구균 1차 67.1 %, 2차 60.5%, 3차 56.7%, 4차 51.4%, 로타바이러스 1차 6.0%, 2차 5.5%, 3차 5.1%이었다. 국가필수 예방접종의 접종별 완전 접종률은 B형간염 3회 98.2%, DTaP 3회 99.0%, DTaP 4회 93.2%, 폴리오 3회 98.4%, 일본뇌염 사백신 3회(생백신 2회) 61.4% 로 나타났다. 또한 시리즈별 완전 접종률은 3:3:3:1 (DTaP 3회, 폴리오 3회, B형간염 3회, BCG 1회) 시리즈 95.9%, 4:3:1(DTaP 4회, 폴리오 3회, MMR 1회) 시리즈 91.9%, 4:3:1:3:1(DTaP 4회, 폴리오 3회, MMR 1회, B형간염 3회, BCG 1회) 시리즈 90.4%, 4:3:1:3:1:1 (DTaP 4회, 폴리오 3회, MMR 1회, B형간염 3회, BCG, 1회, 수두 1회) 시리즈 88.7%, 4:3:1:3:1:1:3 (DTaP 4회, 폴리오 3회, MMR 1회, B형간염 3회, BCG, 1회, 수두 1회, 일본뇌염 사백신 3회, 생백신 2회) 시리즈 56.3%로 나타났다. 기타예방 접종의 접종별 완전 접종률은 b형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자 뇌수막염 3회 82.2%, b형 헤모필루스 인플루엔자 뇌수막염 4회 67.1%, 폐렴구균 4회 49.7%, A형간염 2회 78.1%, 로타바이러스 3회 5.1%로 나타났다. 따라서 향후 근거기반의 예방접종사업 목표 설정 및 정책 수립을 위해 체계적인 국가 단위의 조사는 계속 되어야 할 것이다.
