Popis: To analyze factors associated with vaccination delay in children up to 2 years of age.Cross-sectional study with primary data from a probabilistic sample of 388 children born in 2015. The data were described using absolute and relative frequencies. For the analysis of factors associated with vaccination delay, Cox proportional risk regression was performed, considering the time from birth to the first vaccination delay as a dependent variable and as sociodemographic, economic, behavioral aspects related to health services as independent variables.The delayed vaccination rate was 88.66%. Variables associated with delayed vaccination were: mother's health problems during delivery or in the first 7 days (HR: 0.68; 95% CI: 0.48-0.96); hospitalization of the child in the first 2 years of life (HR: 1.52; 95% CI: 1.10-2.11); mother's poor bond with health professionals at the health unit (HR: 1.75; 95% CI: 1.01-3.03); purposeful decision to delay or not to vaccinate the child (HR: 1.56; 95% CI: 1.14-2.13).The factors associated with health care, such as the mother's health problems, the child's hospitalization in the first 2 years of life, and the bond between the mother and the health professionals affect the timeliness of vaccine doses.
