Abstract
Objective: Analyze the scientific production on the aspects involved in the measles immunization process in Brazil. Methods: Exploratory descriptive study, carried out by means of a systematic literature review, operationalized according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyzes (PRISMA) protocol. The survey of bibliographic studies was carried out in indexed databases such as LILACS, SciELO and MEDLINE. Results: The bibliographic survey found 429 results. The analysis of the publications resulted in a sample of 5 articles, raised by the established criteria. In the period evaluated in this study, it is possible to identify important gaps in vaccination coverage in several places in the national territory. The strategies adopted to fight measles are centered on vaccination campaigns, which despite being proven to be effective, have not had the necessary adherence and there are limitations that fit in the wake of government investments that could impel this adherence. Final considerations: The evidence allowed to identify that the vaccine incompleteness verified is caused by several factors that need to be better dimensioned by new studies and properly dealt with consistent strategies that result in a stricter control of the disease.
