In the case of pregnant women, attitudes towards the adverse effects of the COVID-19 vaccine can be varied. Objective: To analysed the attitude of pregnant women towards the adverse effects of the COVID 19 vaccine. Methods: Qualitative, exploratory study with a phenomenological approach. The study population was pregnant women who had at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine in the parish of Mulliquindil, Canton of Santa Ana, in the main area of Ecuador. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with thirteen participants, at which time the information was saturated. The data obtained were transcribed, analysed, and categorized based on the theory of Baez and Pérez. Results: Two categories emerged from the informants' discourse: negative attitudes such as fear, uncertainty, anguish, worry; and positive attitudes such as seeking information on the adverse effects of the vaccine to comply with the indicated scheme. Conclusions: The main attitudes taken by pregnant women regarding the adverse effects of the vaccine against COVID-19, were influenced by the excess of information and unreliable sources that produce a misinterpretation leading to fear, uncertainty even to the abandonment of the vaccination scheme. Likewise, not much importance is given to immunization against COVID-19.Item Vacunación contra el covid-19 en la población pediátrica(Universidad Técnica de Ambato/Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud/Carrera de Enfermería, 2022-10-13) Ortiz Arrova, Jénesis Nadinne; Arráiz de Fernández, CarolinaThe objective of this research is to determine the vaccination against COVID-19 in the child population. This study is quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional and prospective; and it was applied to the pediatric population of the Pinguili parish of the Mocha canton, province of Tungurahua, Ecuador. The population consisted of children over 1 year old up to 14 years old, who received the vaccine against COVID-19. Applying the finite population formula, with a margin of error of 5 and a reliability index of 95, a significant sample of 172 patients was obtained. The collection instrument was the "Notification Form for Events Supposedly Attributable to Vaccination or Immunization" of the Ministry of Health of Argentina. The results showed a predominance of immunized children between the ages of 10 to 14 years, corresponding to 52%. The most widely used vaccine was the one manufactured by the pharmaceutical company Sinovac (59% of cases). The most frequent adverse reaction was pain, while a combination of systemic adverse reactions was seen in several children of which fever was the most frequent. There was no illness attributable to vaccination against COVID-19. On the contrary, a spontaneous improvement of the symptomatology of the adverse effects caused by vaccination was evidenced in all cases. It is concluded that the majority of the pediatric population has been immunized with the COVID-19 vaccine and the local and systemic adverse effects resolved spontaneously without the need for specialized medication.
