1. Medenilla, Judy; Medina, Kristianne; Medina, Sakura; Mejino, Carla; Melgarejo, Ivy; Mendoza, Alvin; Mendoza, Diana; Mendoza, Donne; Mendoza, Gracielle PEDIATRIC IMMUNIZATION

2. Immunization ◦ Deliberate provocation of an adaptive immune response by introducing antigen into the body Vaccination ◦ Deliberate induction of an adaptive immune response to a pathogen by injecting a vaccine, a killed or attenuated form of the pathogen

3. Immunity Active Passive Injection of an antigen (vaccine)Injection of preformed antibiotics (gammaglobulins) Protection produced by the person’s own immune system Protection transferred from another person or animal Usually permanentTemporary protection that wanes with time

4. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION Contraindications - serious allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) after a previous vaccine dose - serious allergic reaction to a vaccine component Precautions - moderate or severe acute illness with or without fever

5. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION Contraindications to ALL LIVE VACCINES: 1. immunocompromised patients 2. patients given immunoglobulin and blood products for the past 3 months 3. pregnancy and possibility of getting pregnant within 3 months 4. household contacts of immunocompromised patients* (OPV)

6. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION Simultaneous administration of Multiple Vaccines: No contraindications for multiple vaccines routinely recommended Immune response to one vaccine generally does not interfere with other vaccines There should be an interval of 28 days between administration of live vaccines Interchangeability of vaccine products is allowed for primary and booster doses

7. ACTIVE IMMUNIZATION Lapsed immunizations Intervals between vaccine doses that exceed those that are recommended do not adversely affect the immunologic response, provided immunization series is completed

13. Childhood Immunization BCG Vaccine - live attenuated bacterial vaccine - at birth or anytime after birth - booster dose given at school entry Contraindications: immunodeficiency, progressive dermatoses Reaction: abscess at the site; axillary lymphadenopathy

14. BCG Vaccine Usual reactions induration: 2 – 4 wks pustule formation: 5 – 7 wks scar formation: 2 – 3 months Accelerated Reactions: induration: 2-3 days pustule formation: 5-7 days scar formation: 2-3 weeks

15. Hepatitis B vaccine - inactivated viral antigen - 0, 1 & 6 months - children and adolescents who have not been vaccinated with Hep B may begin series during any visit Contraindication: anaphylactic reaction to previous dose Reactions: pain and swelling at site, fever

16. Diphtheria, Tetanus & Pertussis Usual Side Effects: ◦ fever up to 72 hours (low to moderate grade) ◦ restlessness and irritability ◦ local reaction: pain and swelling at the site of injection Contraindications: ◦ encephalopathy within 7 days of administration of previous dose ◦ anaphylactic shock after a previous dose ◦ progressive neurologic disorders

17. Poliomyelitis Vaccine 1. Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV) - live attenuated (Sabin) Absolute contraindications: 1.altered immune states, high dose steroids, radiation, HIV/AIDS 2.pregnancy 3.household contacts of immunocompromised patients Relative contraindications: vomiting and diarrhea Adverse Reaction: paralysis 2. Inactivated or Killed Polio Vaccine (IPV) - recommended to decrease the incidence of vaccine-associated paralytic polio (VAPP)

18. Measles Vaccine - live attenuated - given at 9 months but may be given as early as 6 months during epidemics Adverse reactions: 1. fever with or without rashes (5-12 days after administration) 2. hypersensitivity reaction Contraindication: immunocompromised state, pregnancy Relative Contraindication: untreated active tuberculosis

19. Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR) Vaccine - live attenuated - given at 12-15 months; a booster dose is recommended at 4-6 years old Reactions: 1. fever with or without rashes (5-12 days after administration - measles) 2. fever, swelling of parotid gland (mumps) 3. fever, mild rash, transient arthritis or arthralgia, post- auricular lymphadenopathy (rubella)

20. Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR) Vaccine Reasons for giving 2 doses of MMR: 1. only 87-90% of children actually receive the measles vaccine 2. 5% of children who receive the first vaccine won’t develop immunity 3. children who had an immune response to the first dose could get a “booster” effect Contraindications: same as other live vaccines

21. Varicella Vaccine - live attenuated - routinely given at age 12 months and up but can be given as early as 9 months - can be given within 5 days of exposure - varicella vaccine prevents moderate to severe cases of chickenpox Reactions: -may develop few varicella-like lesions about 1 month after vaccination
