Toxigenic cutaneous diphtheria is a notifiable disease that is re-emerging in the world and particularly in France. A better description of the epidemiological characteristics, as well as a refinement of the clinical characteristics of patients with cutaneous diphtheria, are essential to better understand this pathology, which has important public health issues and whose diagnosis absence can have catastrophic consequences for the patient and their contacts. Microbiological data (species identification, toxigenicity or not, resistance profile...) will be transmitted by the national reference center for corynebacteria of the diphtheriae complex and then caregivers who have managed the corresponding patients with cutaneous diphtheria will be contacted.
Shotblocker is an effective approach to reduce injection pain. Generally, injection pain has been studied in children, but reducing injection pain in adults is an important issue. This study investigates the effect of ShotBlocker on pain and satisfaction levels associated with diphtheria-tetanus vaccination in pregnant women. The sample of this prospective, single-blind randomized controlled experimental study consists of 146 pregnant women registered to the Family Health Center between October 2018 and June 2019. Women were assigned to ShotBlocker and control groups with 73 women in each group. The women's pulse rate was taken one minute before the injection by the researcher. In the ShotBlocker group was used ShotBlocker. The control group used the steps of administering a normal intramuscular injection. The pain and satisfaction related to the injection were evaluated using the Visual Analog Scale and Visual Patient Satisfaction Scale after the vaccination. Pulse rates of the women were taken again by the researcher one minute after the injection.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate immunogenicity by measuring the seroprotection rate against diphtheria and tetanus at 28 days after vaccination with BR-TD-1001 and Td-pur-inj.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and immunogenicity of GSK's combined diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, hepatitis B, inactivated poliovirus and Haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate vaccine (DTPa-HBV-IPV/Hib) versus MCM Vaccine BV's DTaP5-HBV-IPV-Hib vaccine administered to healthy infants and toddlers, between 6 and 12 weeks of age at the time of first vaccination, based on a 2-, 4-, and 12-months of age vaccination schedule.
Primary Objective: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the SHAN6™ vaccine to the licensed SHAN5™ given with bOPV and IPV vaccines when coadministered with PCV and ORV Secondary Objective: - To describe the immunogenicity profile of the SHAN6™ vaccine 3-dose primary infant vaccination and that of the control vaccines (SHAN5™ given with bOPV and IPV) - To describe the immune response to co-administered ORV-1 (Rotarix™) in a subset of participants from each group - To describe the immune response to co-administered PCV-13 (Prevnar 13®) in a subset of participants from each group - To describe the persistence of the antibodies against SHAN6™ antigens following a 3-dose primary series of SHAN6™ or SHAN5™ given with bOPV and IPV - To describe the immunogenicity profile of SHAN6™ 28 days after the single booster dose of SHAN6™ - To describe the safety profile of the SHAN6™ vaccine and the control vaccines (SHAN5™ given with bOPV and IPV), when administered concomitantly with routine pediatric vaccines
Primary objectives: - To assess the safety profile of each SP0202 formulation and Prevnar 13 in toddlers and infants (after each and any injection). - To assess the immune response (serotype specific IgG concentration) of the SP0202 formulations and Prevnar 13 1 month after the administration of one dose in toddlers (Groups 1-4) - To assess the immune response (serotype specific IgG concentration) of the SP0202 formulations and Prevnar 13 1 month after the administration of 3 doses in infants (Groups 5-8) - To assess the immune response (serotype specific IgG concentration) of the SP0202 formulations and Prevnar 13 1 month after administration of a 4-dose schedule in infants (Groups 5-8) Secondary objectives: - To assess the immune response (serotype specific OPA titer) of the SP0202 formulations and Prevnar 13 1 month after the administration of one dose in toddlers (Groups 1-4) - To assess the immune response (serotype specific OPA titer) of the SP0202 formulations and Prevnar 13 1 month after the administration of 3 doses in a subset of infants (Groups 5-8) - To assess the immune response (serotype specific OPA titer) of the SP0202 formulations and Prevnar 13 1 month after administration of a 4-dose schedule in a subset of infants (Groups 5-8) - In toddlers: to describe the Ab responses against Pentacel antigens before and 1 month following injection of Pentacel - In infants: to describe the Ab responses against antigens of the routine pediatric vaccines (Pentacel, RotaTeq, ENGERIX-B, M-M-RII, and VARIVAX) when administered concomitantly with either SP0202 or Prevnar 13 (at pre-Dose 1 (as applicable) for RotaTeq, Diphteria, Tetanus and Pertussis antigens; at PD3 for ENGERIX-B, RotaTeq, and Pentacel; at PD4 for M-M-RII and VARIVAX])
Primary Objectives : - To describe the long-term humoral immune responses to pertussis, diphtheria, and tetanus after homologous and heterologous pertussis vaccine priming regimens - To determine the effects of the priming regimen on humoral responses to booster vaccination with Tdap-IPV vaccine - To describe the long-term cell-mediated immune responses to pertussis after homologous and heterologous pertussis vaccine priming regimens - To determine the effects of the priming regimen on cell-mediated immune response to booster vaccination with Tdap-IPV vaccine Secondary Objective: To describe the safety profile of Tdap-IPV vaccine in each group
Faced with high rates of immunization drop-out, Uganda's immunization program requires innovative approaches to address this weakness. Building upon Uganda's growing mHealth infrastructure to pilot a scalable short message service (SMS) system to remind caregivers of their children's upcoming vaccination visits, it was hypothesized that the SMS intervention will increase immunization coverage in a cost-effective and affordable manner that would make it scalable. The study design was an investigator-blinded, multi-center, parallel groups randomized controlled trial with randomization occurring at the caregiver level in select health facilities of Arua District in Uganda. Enrollment took place at the time of Pentavalent 1 vaccination, and both arms included standard of care provided by the health worker. However, in the intervention arm, caregivers also received SMS text messages reminding them to return for their children's second and third doses of Pentavalent vaccine (four and eight weeks after the first dose of Pentavalent vaccine) and measles-containing vaccine (9 months of age). The primary outcome of interest is vaccination coverage at 12 months of age among children enrolled in the study and will be measured by comparing Penta3 and MCV coverage between arms. The study will also examine the SMS impact on timeliness of vaccine receipt, as it is hypothesized that those children receiving the SMS intervention will be more likely to have timely vaccination than those in the control group. The study will also assess caregiver acceptability and cost-effectiveness of the SMS intervention. In addition to assessing its impact on strengthening the immunization program, this intervention has implications for strengthening other programs of the health system through similar health messaging directed toward caregivers.
Pertussis, diphtheria and tetanus are seriously infectious diseases in children. Since using of the vaccine targeted the three components, it greatly reduced incidence of the three kinds of diseases. The Purpose of this study is to preliminary evaluate the safety of DTcP compared to adsorbed diphtheria and tetanus combined vaccine （DT），Diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis vaccine（DTaP） or PENTAXIM（DTaP-IPV-Hib） in participants.
