Despite the strengthening of routine immunization, Niger continues to register measles outbreaks in some health districts. The objective of the study is to analyze the database of notifiable diseases (DND) for 2003-2015. A retrospective descriptive study was conducted. All suspected case of measles in the DND and the National Reference Laboratory (NRL) database were included. Data was analyzed using the software Epi Info version 3.5.3. A total of 173,997 suspected case of measles and 8,959 suspected cases of measles were recorded respectively for DND and the NRL database from 2003 to 2015. The age range of 1 to 4 years was the most represented with 36.78%. It was showed that 93.12% of the sample was not vaccinated or had unknown vaccination status. The sample having an adequate sampling state had represented 80.02% and 57.84% were positive for IgM. All regions recorded cases and deaths from 2003 to 2015 and there are many disparities across regions and years. The study revealed that there are many variations and disparities across regions and years.

Abstract: (french)
Malgré le renforcement du PEV de routine, le Niger continue à enregistrer des épidémies de rougeole dans certains Districts Sanitaires. L’objectif général de l’étude est d’analyse la base de données des maladies à déclaration obligatoire (MDO) de 2003 à 2015. Il s’agit d’une étude rétrospective descriptive. Notre échantillon est exhaustif des cas suspects de rougeole de la base MDO et de la base des données du Laboratoire National de Reference (LNR). La saisie et le traitement des données ont été faits à l’aide des logiciels Epi info version 3.5.3. Un total de 173 997 cas suspects de rougeole et 8 959 cas suspects de rougeole ont été enregistrés respectivement pour la base MDO et celle du LNR de 2003 à 2015. La tranche d’âge de 1 à 4 ans était la plus représentée avec 36,78%. IL était ressorti que 93,12% de l’échantillon n’était pas vaccinés ou avait un statut vaccinal inconnu. L’échantillon ayant un état de prélèvement adéquat avait représenté 80, 02% et 57, 84% était positifs aux IgM. Toutes les régions ont enregistré des cas et décès et il existe beaucoup de disparités en fonction des régions et des années. L’étude a permis de constater qu’il existe de variations et de disparités en fonction des régions et des années.
