We also identified the factors influencing non-adherence to vaccines specifically recommended for chronic conditions. Methods Three non-interventional point-prevalence surveys were performed in 2014 in all paediatric units at Lille University Hospital among children aged 2 months-18 years with chronic diseases and vaccination data. Vaccine coverage and delays for generally recommended vaccines were studied. The children who were up-to-date and those under-vaccinated for specifically indicated vaccines were compared and the factors potentially associated with under-vaccination were studied with multivariable analysis. Results We screened 682 patients: of 207 with chronic diseases, mainly neurological, muscular and respiratory disorders, 146 had vaccination data. Only 47% (95% confidence interval 39-55) were up-to-date for all generally recommended vaccinations; potentially harmful vaccination delays were high (26%-75%). Only 11% of the 81% of patients for whom some vaccines were specifically recommended were up-to-date. Low maternal education level was significantly associated with under-vaccination (adjusted odds ratio 10.5, 95% confidence interval 1.3-86.9, P = .03). Conclusion This study showed inadequate vaccine coverage rates and significant delays among children with chronic diseases.Show less >
