Opis:: Influenza is an acute respiratory disease caused by the influenza virus which often occurs in outbreaks and epidemics worldwide. The World Health Organization recommends annual vaccination of healthcare workers (HCWs) against influenza, because most of them are involved in the direct care of patients with a high risk of influenza-related complications. Given the significance of the disease burden, a targeted literature review was conducted to assess issues related to influenza vaccination among HCWs. The primary aim of this review was to assess the incidence of influenza among medical personnel and healthcare-associated influenza, and to outline the benefits of influenza vaccination for patients and HCWs themselves. Vaccination of HCWs seems to be an important strategy for reducing the transmission of influenza from healthcare personnel to their patients and, therefore, for reducing patient morbidity and mortality, increasing patient safety, and reducing work absenteeism among HCWs. The benefits of influenza vaccination for their patients and for HCWs themselves are addressed in literature, but the evidence is mixed and often of low-quality.

Opis:: Background Healthcare workers (HCWs) are at high risk for exposure to upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs) and influenza-like illnesses (ILIs). The present study aimed to surveil URTIs and ILIs and their impact among the Department of Pediatric Infectious Diseases in Wroclaw employees and evaluate their humoral response to influenza. Material and Methods Thirty-six HCWs participated in the first season and 32 HCWs in the second season during years of the study. The authors carried out a URTI/ILI surveillance, and all HCWs were asked to complete a weekly report during 2 influenza seasons: 2016/2017 (S1) and 2017/2018 (S2). In S1 both IgG and IgM antibodies against influenza A and B were assessed. The HCWs with symptoms of ILI were encouraged to undergo PCR tests for influenza. Results No significant differences in reporting URTI were found among vaccinated and non-vaccinated HCWs and HCWs and the control group. Depending on the year 5.5–17.2% of HCWs were treated with antibiotics because of URTI. In the study 58.7% of participants in S1 and 66.7% in S2 decide to work despite the URTI symptoms. There was no statistical relationship between the concentration of anti-influenza IgG and the number of URTIs and ILIs reported. Only vaccinated were willing to undergo voluntary influenza testing. Conclusions The URTI and ILI occur commonly in HCWs, and HCWs contract URTIs as often as the control group. Despite their medical education, HCWs work with the symptoms of infection and overuse antibiotics to treat the URTI. Serology testing is not able to follow the infection’s dynamics or identify the people immune to the influenza-like illness. The diagnostic value of IgM antibodies in acute influenza infection is negligible. Vaccinated HCWs are more focused on their health and are more willing to undergo influenza tests.

Opis:: Szczepienia przeciw grypie są zalecane każdego roku wszystkim pracownikom medycznym jako kluczowy element działań mających na celu m.in. zapobieganie transmisji grypy w placówkach opieki zdrowotnej. Biorąc pod uwagę to zalecenie oraz znaczenie takich szczepień, dokonano przeglądu niesystematycznego literatury, by ocenić kwestie związane z poziomem zaszczepienia, deklarowanymi motywami oraz barierami dotyczącymi szczepień, a także interwencjami, których celem jest zwiększenie wskaźnika szczepień w tej grupie zawodowej. Dane z dostępnych publikacji wskazują, że wskaźnik realizacji szczepień przeciw grypie wśród pracowników medycznych jest ogólnie niski i zróżnicowany w czasie, lokalnie, a także wśród poszczególnych zawodów medycznych. Głównym motywem szczepienia przeciw grypie jest chęć ochrony siebie i rodziny. Wśród licznych barier wymienia się najczęściej błędne przekonania dotyczące bezpieczeństwa i skuteczności szczepień oraz bariery organizacyjne. Wskazuje się, że jest duża potrzeba prowadzenia działań edukacyjnych oraz promocyjnych będących kluczowymi elementami zwiększania poziomu zaszczepienia w strategii dobrowolnych szczepień.
Influenza vaccination, as a key element of control activities intended, inter alia, to prevent nosocomial influenza transmission, is recommended each year for all healthcare workers (HCWs). Due to these recommendations and the importance of influenza vaccination among HCWs, a targeted literature review was conducted to assess issues related to vaccination coverage, declared motivators and barriers, as well as interventions to increase vaccination coverage in this professional group. Data obtained from the available publications implies that influenza vaccination rates among WHCs are universally low and vary over time as well as between regions and different types of healthcare professionals (physicians/nurses). One of the main determinants of influenza vaccine uptake is the desire to protect oneself and one’s family. On the other hand, practical considerations and misconceptions about the safety and effectiveness of vaccines are the most frequently mentioned preventative causes. There is an urgent need to implement well-organized educational campaigns as this is key to increasing vaccination rates as part of a non-mandatory vaccination strategy. Med Pr. 2021;72(3):305–19
