1 CHF INCLEN ADVAC 2011 Vaccination in Special Situations: Break-out sessions Group B 1
2 Group B. Moderator: Dr. Rohit Agrawal Expert: Dr. Walter Orenstien 2
3 Learning objectives: What are the special situation that warrant change in immunization practices? What are the issues to confront with while immunizing an immunocompromized child? Different immunocompromized states and vaccination recommendations: The recommendations for vaccinating an HIV positive child; Issues related to immunizing a preterm/lbw infant How to deal with issues like lapsed immunization, catch up immunization, immunization for travelers, during pregnancy & illness, elderly, etc? Immunization of children with chronic diseases, with malignancy, with asplenia, with organ transplant, etc Immunization of children on steroid therapy, recd antibodies containing products Recommendations on interchangeability of vaccine brands 3
4 Vaccination in Immunocompromized children: Dilemmas & reality!! 4
5 The Dilemma: 5
6 The Reality: 6
7 Vaccinations not optimally used in our immunocompromised patients Disease oriented approach Ignorance Fear of vaccine-associated risks Perception of insufficient efficacy (why stimulate a compromised immune system ) 7
8 The Issues: Basis of Vaccination in Immunocompromised (IC): Greater need for immunization Higher Susceptibility IC Lower immunogenicity / efficacy Adverse effects with live vaccines 8
9 General Principles: In severe immunodeficiency all live vaccines contraindicated. In mild / moderate?? All inactivated vaccines may be given but immunogenicity and efficacy low Higher doses, more no. of doses may be required (Hep. B) Antibody titers should be checked post immunization. Regular boosters may be needed 9
10 General Principles: Household contacts of IC should not receive transmissible vaccines such as OPV All household contacts should be fully immunized including varicella & influenza to reduce risk of transmission to the IC Immunoglobulins (RIG, TIG, HIG) may be needed in some situations. IAP recommended Vaccines like pneumococcal, varicella, hepatitis A, inactivated influenza should be given if resources permit Insufficient data on safety and efficacy of Rotavirus vaccine in IC 10
11 Immune Responses & CD4+ Count: At what level Immune suppression develops? 11
12 Immune Responses & CD4+ Count: At what level Immune suppression develops? Conserved- no immunosuppression when: CD4+ T lymphocytes >25% Moderate immunosuppression when: CD4+ T lymphocytes 15-24% Severe immuno-suppression (Impaired, absent) when: CD4+ T lymphocytes <15% 12
13 IMMUNOCOMPROMISED CONDITIONS A. PRIMARY (CONGENITAL) IMMUNODEFICIENCIES B. ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCIES 13
14 What are Primary Immunodeficiency States? 14
15 What are Primary Immunodeficiency States? Primary Immunodeficiency States B-lymphocyte defects T-lymphocyte defects Phagocytic function disorders Complement deficiency 15
16 WHAT ARE ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCIES? 16
17 WHAT ARE ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCIES? ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCIES HIV Chronic liver diseases Malignancies & chronic granulomatous diseases Transplant recipients Solid organ transplant BMT Children with malignancies on Immunosuppressive therapy - Steroids, CXT, RXT, Asplenic children 17
18 B-lymphocyte defects: OPV Contraindicated in all these situations All live bacterial (BCG & Oral Typhoid) & - contraindicated Live Viral (MMR, Measles & Varicella) vaccines- Caution Inactivated vaccines can be given but of uncertain efficacy Pneumococcal and influenza particularly recommended 18
19 T-lymphocyte defects All live vaccines are contraindicated!! Inactivated vaccines may be given but efficacy depends on severity of immunocompromise 19
20 T -lymphocyte defects (cell mediated and humoral ) SCID ( severe combined immunodeficiecy) Complete Di George syndrome NO LIVE VACCINE All vaccines ineffective 20
21 T -lymphocyte defects (cell mediated and humoral ) partial Di George syndrome Wiskott Aldrich syndrome Ataxia telangiectasia NO LIVE VACCINE inactivated vaccines may be given 21
22 Phagocytic function disorders Eg CGD, LAD, MPO deficiency All live bacterial (BCG and oral typhoid) vaccines are contraindicated!! Live viral vaccines can be administered Consider Influenza vaccine to prevent secondary bacterial infections 22
23 Complement deficiency All vaccines can be safely administered More prone to pneumococcal & meningococcal infections! C1-4 (early complement): all vaccines are effective; pneumo + meningo recommended C5-9, Properdin, Factor B: all vaccines are effective; meningo recommended 23
24 Secondary Immunodeficiency states HIV Chronic liver diseases Malignancies & chronic granulomatous diseases Transplant recipients Solid organ transplant BMT Immunosuppressive therapy - Steroids, CXT, RXT, Asplenic children 24
25 Immunization of Preterms/LBWs: All vaccines may be administered as per schedule according to the chronological age irrespective of birth weight or period of gestation. BCG and birth dose of OPV can be safely and effectively given to low birth weight/preterm babies after stabilization and preferably at the time of discharge. In babies < 2 kg, the birth dose of hepatitis B vaccine should be delayed for 1 month after birth as immunogenicity is lower if given earlier. 25
26 Vaccination of patients receiving steroids Killed vaccines are fine Live vaccines are safe if daily dose <20 mg / day (prednisone) in more than 10 kg or (< 2 mg/kg in less than 10 kg) > 2 mg/kg or > 20 mg / day for less than 2 weeks alternate day therapy Inhaled or topical steroids OUTSIDE OF THESE CONDITIONS NO LIVE VACCINE (until 1 month after discontinuation of corticoids) 26
27 Vaccination of the patient with cancer / chemotherapy / radiotherapy VACCINE Indic Catchup DTP YES Hepatitis B YES Pneumococcus YES Influenza YES Varicella YES * MMR YES * *Before initiation (!!!) or > 3-6 months after chemotherapy! Optimal period of immunization Decreased immunogenicity Increased risk of complications All live vaccines should be avoided during and at least 3 months after chemotherapy & radiotherapy 27
28 Immunization in relation to antibody containing products Inactivated vaccines can be safely administered Live vaccines including MMR & Varicella should be avoided for 3 months Antibody containing products should be avoided for 2 weeks after these vaccinations Oral Typhoid vaccine, LAIV, OPV & Yellow fever may be given at any time Rota virus vaccine should be avoided for 6 weeks 28
29 Immunization in H/O Allergy Vaccines contraindicated with H/O Serious Hypersensitivity / Anaphylaxis In H/O egg allergy influenza & yellow fever vaccines contraindicated but measles, MMR may be given. H/O any hypersensitivity should be cautious vaccination with JE Mild reactions not contraindications to vaccinations Resuscitation equipment should be kept standby 29
