The purpose of this study was to explore the adherence to the vaccination protocol and its influencing factors among rabies-exposed patients in Shenzhen, China. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Shenzhen, China, to obtain epidemiological characteristics of patients; knowledge, attitude, and practice scores of rabies prevention; and medical records. A total of 326 patients requiring full rabies PEV were included in this study, and only 62% (202) completed the full course of vaccination according to the norms of the vaccination guidelines. After multifactor logistic regression, the factors influencing adherence to vaccination were as follows: age 31 to 40 years, time spent to reach the nearest rabies prevention clinic was &gt;60 min, the time of injury was at night to early morning, the place of injury was a school\/laboratory, the animal causing injury was a cat, the health status of the animal causing injury could not be determined, and patients with higher practice scores (all <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>&lt;0.05). Understanding the factors influencing rabies vaccination adherence among rabies-exposed patients in urban areas of China and promote changes in patients\u2019 practice toward rabies prevention is essential for rabies elimination by 2030.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0950268824000049","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,10]],"date-time":"2024-01-10T04:30:11Z","timestamp":1704861011000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Rabies vaccination adherence and associated factors among rabies-exposed patients in Shenzhen, China: a hospital-based cross-sectional study"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"152","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-3946-8417","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ruiqi","family":"Lu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jinsheng","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yang","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qian","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zaiying","family":"Fan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shuning","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pei","family":"Qin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liping","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0950268824000049_r8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"6","DOI":"10.1186\/s12879-017-2830-x","article-title":"Epidemiological characteristics and post-exposure prophylaxis of human rabies in Chongqing, China, 2007-2016","volume":"18","author":"Qi","year":"2018","journal-title":"BMC Infectious Diseases"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r2","first-page":"136","article-title":"Global burden of rabies in 204 countries and territories, from 1990 to 2019: Results from the global burden of disease study 2019","volume":"126","author":"Gan","year":"2023","journal-title":"International Journal of Infectious Diseases: IJID: Official Publication of the International Society for Infectious Diseases"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r18","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"6215","DOI":"10.4103\/jfmpc.jfmpc_497_22","article-title":"Compliance to post-exposure prophylaxis among animal bite patients \u2013 A hospital-based epidemiological study","volume":"11","author":"Panda","year":"2022","journal-title":"Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r22","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"428","DOI":"10.4161\/21645515.2014.995059","article-title":"Comparative study on the immunogenicity and safety of a purified chick embryo cell rabies vaccine (PCECV) administered according to two different simulated post exposure intramuscular regimens (Zagreb versus Essen)","volume":"11","author":"Mahendra","year":"2015","journal-title":"Human Vaccines and Immunotherapeutics"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r12","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S20","DOI":"10.4103\/ijph.IJPH_364_19","article-title":"Health-seeking behavior and compliance to post exposure prophylaxis among animal bite victims in India","volume":"63","author":"Haradanhalli","year":"2019","journal-title":"Indian Journal of Public Health"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r30","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1293","DOI":"10.1186\/s12889-020-09388-9","article-title":"Knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) survey of canine rabies in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab Province of Pakistan","volume":"20","author":"Ahmed","year":"2020","journal-title":"BMC Public Health"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r33","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"197","DOI":"10.1093\/trstmh\/trab123","article-title":"Rabies and the pandemic: Lessons for one health","volume":"116","author":"Nadal","year":"2022","journal-title":"Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r20","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"148","DOI":"10.1136\/vr.h4196","article-title":"Rabies: 100 per cent fatal, 100 per cent preventable","volume":"177","author":"Abela-Ridder","year":"2015","journal-title":"The Veterinary Record"},{"key":"S0950268824000049_r31","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"365","DOI":"10.1016\/S1473-3099(17)30116-0","article-title":"One health strategies for rabies control in rural areas of China","volume":"17","author":"Tan","year":"2017","journal-title":"The Lancet.
