BACKGROUND: The Neonatal BCG Immunisation programme is a key part of tuberculosis (TB) control efforts in the UK; however, there is considerable variability in the method of delivery of the programme and monitoring of performance. This study aimed to review the extent to which infants at risk of exposure to TB are being identified in Grampian and to assess the uptake of BCG vaccination in eligible infants.
METHODS: The Practitioner Services database and Scottish Immunisation Recall System records for all babies born in Grampian in 2012 and 2013 were reviewed to identify the number of babies who had a TB risk status recorded and to assess the uptake of BCG immunization in at-risk babies.
RESULTS: The proportion of babies with a risk status recorded was 96.6% in 2012 and 95.5% in 2013. The uptake of BCG vaccination in at-risk babies was 85.9% in 2012 and 89.9% in 2013.
CONCLUSIONS: NHS Grampian has an efficient method for identifying infants at risk of exposure to TB and has good neonatal BCG vaccination coverage.
