Coverage Evaluation of Intensified Mission Indradhanush of last 5 years – A Systemic review

Abstract

The Government of India launched Intensified Mission Indradhanush (IMI) to strengthen the routine
immunization. To achieve more than 90% full immunization (FI) coverage IMI was launched on 25th
December 2014. Study was conducted to evaluate universal immunization coverage, barriers encountered in
achieving the target and solving problems in removing the barriers. PubMed and Google scholar were used for
systemic review. PRISMA tool was used for the review process and for inclusion of potential articles. The
studies conducted in Madhya Pradesh and south Kerala reported successful achievement of MI goal. The
minimum FI percentage was 76.4% and the maximum was 96.4%. The most common reason for not
achievement of the goal was lack of awareness, child illness and fear of adverse event following
immunization (AEFI).
