Conclusion: The measles seroprevalence is increasing with age and is particularly higher in the medical staff rather than the non-medical staff.

Özet

Objective: Measles is a vaccine-preventable disease that has a po- tential for outbreaks. Health care workers (HCWs) are the most vulnerable group to get infected. In this study, measles seropreva- lence in HCWs and the relationship of seroprevalence with age and occupational groups was studied. Methods: The measles serology of 422 HCWs tested between January 2010 and January 2011 was retrospectively searched from the electronic data system. The names, ages, and occupations were obtained from the personnel registration department. The blood samples were examined for measles immunoglobulin G using a micro-ELISA kit qualitative (NovaTec Immundiagnostica GmbH, Dietzenbach, Germany). The results were compared according to the occupational groups (doctors, nurses, and non-medical staff). Results: A total of 94% HCWs were immune to measles. Em- ployees in the non-medical staff (91%) were below this percent- age while doctors (98%) and nurses (95%) were above. Al- though the immune status to measles was more remarkable for the doctor group, no statistical significance was found (p=0.080). Conclusion: The measles seroprevalence is increasing with age and is particularly higher in the medical staff rather than the non-medical staff.

Abstract

Amaç: Kızamık aşıyla önlenebilen ve potansiyel olarak salgınlara neden olabilen bir hastalıktır. Sağlık çalışanları, enfeksiyona ma- ruziyet açısından en hassas grubu oluşturur. Bu çalışmada sağlık çalışanlarında kızamık seroprevalansı ve seroprevalans ile yaş ve meslek grupları arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Yöntemler: Ocak 2010 ve Ocak 2011 tarihleri arasında kızamık serolojisi bakılan 422 sağlık çalışanının sonuçları elektronik bilgi sistemi üzerinden retrospektif olarak tarandı. Personel kayıt bi- riminden isim yaş ve meslek bilgileri alındı. Kan örnekleri kıza- mık immunoglobulin G tespiti için mikro-ELISA kiti ile çalışıldı (NovaTec Immundiagnostica GmbH, Dietzenbach, Germany). Bulgular: Kızamığa karşı immünite genel olarak %94 tespit edil- di. Tıp dışı çalışanlarda bu oran düşükken (%91), doktorlarda (%98) ve hemşirelerde (%95) bu oran daha yüksek bulundu. Doktorlarda kızamığa karşı immünite oranı dikkat çekici olarak yüksek bulunurken istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark tespit edilme- di (p=0,080). Sonuç: Kızamık seroprevalansı yaşla birlikte artmaktadır, özel- likle tıbbi çalışanlarda bu oran tıp dışı çalışanlara göre daha yük- sektir.
