Filter by:Pfizer - BioNTech (BNT162b2) COVID - 19 vaccine is the first vaccine to be approved for emergency use by FDA. The most commonly reported side effect of the BNT162b2 vaccination is mild-to-moderate pain at injection site, i.e. deltoid muscle. Injection site pain may be observed during and after vaccine injection, and severity of pain may vary according to the type of vaccine, patients age, sex, level of anxiety, needle size, injection site and technique and patient positioning. Vaccination pain is one of the reasons of vaccine hesitancy and World Health Organization (WHO) recommended various measures to mitigate pain at the time of vaccination. Exercise is one of the suggested methods to relieve the pain and anxiety in various conditions including vaccination site pain. However, we found no studies addressing injection site pain after the vaccination and pain associated with BNT162b2 vaccine. Aim of our study is to evaluate effectiveness of deltoid muscle exercises to relieve injection site pain observed after BNT162b2 vaccination.
This is a prospective, observational study. During the study, children and adolescents (ages ≥ 5 to < 16) will be followed post administration of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Injection site (local), systemic reaction, and unsolicited adverse event data will be assessed on vaccination day and during the 7 days following each vaccination using either identical web-based or paper diaries, depending on study participant preference. At Duke University, Cincinnati's Children Hospital, and Kaiser Permanente Northern California, serum samples will be collected for optional assessment of antibody titers to COVID-19. Each participant who opts in will have baseline (within 3 days of vaccination) serologies obtained and immunogenicity assessment at 28 (+7) days after each dose. All participants will be followed for 180 days after dose 2 for serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest.
This study is a prospective, randomized clinical trial. During this study, participants will be randomly assigned to receive quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4) and mRNA COVID-19 vaccine either simultaneously or sequentially, 7-14 days apart. Persons in the simultaneous group will receive mRNA COVID-19 and IIV4 at Visit 1 (Day 1) and a saline placebo injection at Visit 2. Persons in the sequential group will receive mRNA COVID-19 vaccine and a saline placebo at Visit 1 (Day 1) and IIV4 injection at Visit 2. For participants receiving their primary dose series, a second dose of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine will be administered either 3 to 8 weeks or 4 to 8 weeks following the first dose, depending upon the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine provided. For those receiving a booster dose of mRNA COVID-19 only a single mRNA COVID-19 will be received in this study. Solicited symptoms of reactogenicity and adverse events will be assessed on vaccination day and daily during the 7 days following each Vaccination Visit using either electronic or paper symptoms diaries, depending on study participant preference. Quality of life data will be collected using electronic or paper diaries on day of Vaccination Visit 1 and daily during the 7 days following the visit. Serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest will be collected throughout the duration of the study. Participants are followed through Day 121. Serum samples from participants will be collected for determination of SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity at baseline. Serum samples will be taken throughout the study to determine IIV4 and COVID-19 vaccine immunogenicity and for potential future studies.
The overall aim of the study is to compare the safety of simultaneous Zoster Vaccine Recombinant, Adjuvanted (RZV) (SHINGRIX®) and Quadrivalent Influenza Vaccine, Adjuvanted (FLUAD®) versus simultaneous Zoster Vaccine Recombinant, Adjuvanted (RZV) (SHINGRIX®) and Fluzone® High-Dose Quadrivalent vaccine in persons age ≥65 years. A prospective, randomized, blinded clinical trial that will be conducted during the 2021/2022 and 2022/2023 influenza seasons. Over the course of these two influenza seasons, approximately 220 older adults will be enrolled at Duke University Medical Center, and 180 older adults at Johns Hopkins University Medical Center. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either simultaneous RZV/FLUAD® or RZV/Fluzone® High-Dose vaccines. All subjects will be assessed for 7 days post-injection and safety and tolerability compared between the two groups. Serious adverse events and adverse events of clinical interest will be assessed 42 days post-vaccination and compared between the two groups. Health-related quality of life will be assessed pre-vaccination Day 1 through Day 8. Serious Adverse Events and Adverse Events of Clinical Interest were also assessed throughout the study period.
Allergen immunotherapy is effective in the management of allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis/conjunctivitis, and stinging insect hypersensitivity. The most common side effect of subcutaneous allergen specific immunotherapy (SCIT) is local reactions (LR). Although some studies indicated that LR did not predict systemic reaction (SR), patients with higher frequency of large local reaction (LLR) were reported to have higher risk for SR. Epinephrine may decrease LLR due to its vasoconstrictive effect . The objective of this study was to compare the size of LLR in patients receiving SCIT with epinephrine or normal saline coated syringe. The patients who complained of frequent LLR despite pre-medication and local treatment were recruited.
A Phase IV, Randomised, Double-blind, Single-centre clinical trial in healthy male and female participants aged 18 to 55, that was designed to assess and compare the pain intensity at an injection site as well as the duration of pain following a single dose subcutaneous administration of two low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) respectively.
Fifty-five patients received three subcutaneous heparin injections (165 injections) by the same investigator using additional techniques such as mechano-analgesia and cold application, and without any additional techniques.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety of subcutaneous (SC) interferon beta therapies with regard to frequency of injection site reactions (ISR) and flu-like symptoms (FLS) as reported by the relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) participants.
The overall aim of the study is to compare safety and immunogenicity of inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV), adjuvanted (FLUAD®) versus High-Dose inactivated influenza (Fluzone® High-Dose) vaccine in persons ≥65 years (20% aged ≥80 years). A prospective, randomized, blinded clinical trial that will be conducted during the 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 influenza seasons. During each season, approximately 220 older adults will be enrolled at Duke University Medical Center and 140 older adults at Boston University Medical Center. Eligible subjects will be randomized to receive either adjuvanted influenza vaccine or High-Dose influenza vaccine. All subjects will receive vaccine and provide a blood draw at Visit 1, and then return for a second blood draw without vaccination about 4 weeks later to assess for influenza antibody titers. A subset of 100 subjects at Duke will provide a third blood draw 6 months post-vaccination to assess for waning of influenza antibody titers. Subjects will record the occurrence of local and systemic reactions (including fever, pain, tenderness, swelling, redness, general systemic systems), unsolicited adverse events, medical care utilization, and changes in medications over 8 days following vaccination. In addition, serious adverse events and events of clinical interest will be assessed through 42 days post-vaccination. Health-related quality of life will be assessed pre-vaccination (Day 1) and on Days 3 and 9 post-vaccination.
