Paper doi abstract bibtex Aims: Since the influenza A (H1N1) pandemic in 2009, kidney transplant coordinators (TC) at Singapore General Hospital were prompted to conduct an educational campaign to promote influenza vaccination among kidney transplant recipients (KTR). This is a report of the willingness of KTR to undergo influenza vaccination after the campaign. Method(s): Between May and June of 2010, TCs contacted 87.4% (n=720/824) of KTR by telephone and provided education on risks and benefits of influenza vaccination and also collected information on whether they had received influenza vaccination before, whether they were willing to undergo vaccination after counseling by the TC and reasons for not getting vaccinated despite counseling. Result(s): At the time of TC contact, only 14.2% (n=102/720) already receive influenza vaccination, of which 6.8% (n=49/720), 3.6% (n=26/720) and 3.7 % (n=27/720) received seasonal influenza vaccine, pandemic H1N1 vaccine and both vaccines respectively. After counseling, 18.7% (n=116/618) of those who had not been vaccinated before were willing to proceed with vaccination. Among KTR who remained reluctant to undergo vaccination, the 3 most common reasons for refusal included (1) preference to seek their physician concurrence first (23.8%; n=147/618), (2) felt it was unnecessary (20.9%; n=129/618) and (3) was not given advice by their physicians to undergo vaccination (18.3%; n=113/618). KTR who were admitted to hospital in the past year and those who have shorter post-transplant duration were more likely to undergo vaccination. Conclusion(s): The rate of influenza vaccination before and after counseling by TC remained low. Physician input was important in decision making for patients to undergo vaccination in 42.1% (n=250/618) of those who rely on physician's advice and not vaccinated yet.
