During 2007, Laziosanità conducted a cross-sectional survey on childhood immunization coverage in Lazio Region. The survey, implemented in collaboration with the 12 LHUs of the Region, aimed at assessing immunization coverage among children, with 24 months of age or older, at regional and district level. In addition, the survey assessed reliability of the routine surveillance system and immunization records at peripheral level. Finally, delay in immunization schedule, and major reasons for non-compliance, as reported by the mothers, were analyzed. The survey results allowed to identify weakness in the routine surveillance system, low coverage levels for specific LHUs, and strategies for improvement of immunization coverage.
