EVALUATION OF POPULATION MEMBERSHIP FROM MICROREGION NORTHWEST OF MINAS GERAIS TO THE INTRODUCTION OF VACCINE HPV TO CALENDER NATIONAL IMMUNIZATION

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Belonging to the family Papillomaviridae, HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) has more than 200 variations. The subtypes 16 and 18 participate in 70 % of cases of cervical cancer. The recombinant vaccine consists of HPV types 6, 11, 16 and 18, being introduced in about 51 countries. In Brazil, in 2014, began the extended scheme of three doses (0, 6 and 60 months). The objective of this study is to assess the adhesion of population of micro-region Northwest of Minas Gerais after first dose of vaccine, comparing results between campaigns of 2014 and 2015. METHODS It is a cross-sectional descriptive study of quantitative approach. For data collection, were used health information systems. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS It was established a target to vaccinate 80 % of the target population defined for each year. In 2014, girls were between 11 and 13 years. In 2015, between 9 and 11, and, from 2016, 9-year-old girls. The first dose of 2014 reached 87.3% of 4.9 million girls of 11-13 years old living in the country. On micro-region Northwest of Minas Gerais, the total coverage was 94.66%. This micro-region covers 13 municipalities, two of which did not reach the goal. The coverage of this micro-region to second dose of 2014, first and second doses of 2015 was 68.38 %, 62.18 % and 41.61 %, respectively. Note, therefore, that after the first campaign, population membership has been lower each dose. It is suggested measures to stabilize the achievement of goals in this region.
