Introduction:

A decline in vaccine coverage has been seen in children living in Peru, under ve years of age; being the jungle region the most affected.

Objective:

Analyze the social and maternal factors associated with non-compliance with the national vaccination scheme in children under ve years of age in the Peruvian jungle, year 2019.

Methods:

Observational, analytical and retrospective study. The base of the Demographic and Family Health Survey (ENDES) Peru, 2019 was used. The study variables were selected and the SPSS 26.0 program was used for the analysis. From 4,373 selected surveys, it was shown that 57.5% of children under ve years of age in the Peruvian jungle had non-compliance with the national vaccination scheme (ENV); the associated factors were not having health insurance (RPa 1.2; p<0.000, CI95% 1.11-1.29), poverty (RPa=1.18, p<0.001, CI95% 1.08-1, 29), native mother tongue (RPa=1.17, p<0.001. CI95% 1.07-1.30), problems going to the health center (RPa=1.09, p=0.036, CI95% 1, 04-1.21), and mother/guardian age under 24 years (RPa=0.78, p<0.001, 95% CI 0.68-0.89).

Conclusion:

The risk factors associated with non-compliance with the ENV were: social, not having health insurance (RPa 1.2; p<0.000, CI95% 1.11-1.29), poverty (RPa=1.18, p< 0.001, 95% CI 1.08-1.29) and native mother tongue (RPa=1.17, p<0.001. 95% CI 1.07-1.30); and maternal, problems going to the health center (RPa=1.09, p=0.036, 95% CI 1.04-1.21), and mother/guardian age under 24 years (RPa=0.78, p <0.001, 95% CI 0.68-0.89).
