- Abstract
Objective: to analyze the Post-Vaccination Adverse Events (PVAE) in children under five years of age. Method: quantitative, cross-sectional study with analysis of 353 records of PVAE notifications. The data were collected with a structured instrument, analyzed statistically by the SPSS 19.0 program and, later, presented in tables and figure. Results: 373 PVAE were identified, 83.90% of which were Temporal Vaccine Adverse Events (TVAE) and 16.10% were immunization errors (IE). The most frequent occurred in male children and under one year of age. The highest incidences of TVAE were related to inactivated vaccines against Poliomyelitis and Pentavalente, and the incidences of IE with Yellow Fever and Oral or Poliomyelitis vaccines. The most frequent errors were wrong vaccine (26.7%) and administration outside the recommended age (18.3%). Conclusion: the reatogenicity of vaccines and systemic failures suggest the need to improve the vaccination system.
