  1. Vaccination Update American College of Physicians, 2007 Missouri Chapter Meeting September 27, Tan Tar A Resort, Osage Beach, MO Gordon Christensen, M.D., F.A.C.P. University of Missouri-Columbia 573-882-3107

  2. Points to be Covered: • Vaccination Primer • New adult vaccines: • Varicella (“Shingles”) • Human Papillomavirus (HPV) • Routine adult vaccines: • Pneumococcal • Influenza • Hepatitis A • Hepatitis B • MMR • Meningococcal

  3. Active immunization: Durable immunity Primary immune response with: B-cell proliferation Antibody production T-cell sensitization Passive immunization Transient immunity Antibody infusion Background

  4. TRUE Contraindications to Vaccination • Severe hypersensitivity reaction • Anaphylaxis • Vaccine specific – avoid vaccine • Eggs – avoid: measles, mumps, influenza, & yellow fever • Neomycin & streptomycin – avoid MMR • Severe reaction to past vaccine, seen with: • Cholera, Typhoid, and Plague vaccines • History of post-vaccine encephalopathy from past vaccines • Live vaccines • Immunocompromised patients (IP) • Household members of IP – avoid oral polio (but not MMR) • Pregnant women

  5. FALSE Contraindications to Vaccination • Current or recent mild illness, with or without fever • Current or recent antimicrobial therapy • Previous mild to moderate reaction after any vaccination, such as: • Local tenderness • Redness • Swelling • Fever < 40.5°C • Family history of adverse reaction to immunization No post-vaccination contraindications for athletics or alcohol

  6. Vaccination Requirements for PROVIDERS • Follow instructions • Maintain administration records • Report adverse events • Provide vaccine information brochures for patients, available from: CDC National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease website @: www.cdc.gov/nip

  7. Schedule Problems • Off schedule? – Do not restart series, just pick-up where left off and continue • Multiple vaccines? – Can usually co-administer vaccines, such as: • Pneumococcal and influenza & travel vaccines Exceptions: • Live virus vaccines: delay one for a month to avoid possible impaired immune response to either agent • Immune globulins should not be given with live virus vaccines (exceptions: inactivated virus vaccines, oral polio, and yellow fever)

  8. For Healthy Adults: q 10 yrs q year

  9. For Adults with Health Problems: 1 dose 1-2 doses 2 doses 3 doses 1 or more doses

  10. New Adult Vaccines Zoster for adults (“Shingles” vaccine) Human Papillomavirus Also: New intranasal influenza vaccine New meningococcal conjugate vaccine New hepatitis A & B combined vaccine (New conjugate pneumococcal vaccine)

Varicella (“Chickenpox” ) Vaccine: Varivax® • Live, attenuated, virus vaccine, US license in 1995 • Contraindicated in pregnancy & immunocompromised • For children (>12 mos) & adults, particularly adult: • Health care workers • Primary school teachers & day care workers • Institutional residents and employees • Military personnel • Non-pregnant women of child bearing age • International travelers • 2 dose adult schedule: 0 & 4-8 weeks – No booster

  12. Varicella (“Shingles” ) Vaccine: Zostavax® • Zostavax® has 14 times more virus than in Varivax® • Licensed 2006 for >59 y/o to prevent shingles • Clinical study: • 38,000 adults, 60-80 y/o, followed median of 3+ years • Vaccine group: • 51% fewer episodes of shingles • Duration reduced from 24 to 21 days • 66% less post-herpetic neuralgia • Efficacy highest for 60-69 @ 64% • Efficacy declines with age, 18% for >80 y/o

  13. Varicella (“Shingles” ) Vaccine: Zostavax® • Administer as a single dose • Contraindicated for: • Anaphylactic reaction to gelatin or neomycin, • Immunodeficiency states including: • leukemia, lymphomas, neoplasms affecting the bone marrow or lymphatic system • AIDS • active untreated tuberculosis. • immunosuppressive therapy including high-dose corticosteroids • women who are or may be pregnant • Average wholesale price: $190

  14. Varicella (“Shingles” ) Vaccine: Zostavax® • The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted in October 25, 2006 that: “A single dose of zoster vaccine [i.e. Zostavax] is recommended for adults 60 years of age and older whether or not they report a prior episode of herpes zoster. Persons with chronic medical conditions may be vaccinated unless a contraindication or precaution exists for their condition.” • This recommendation was tentatively set for publication in CDC Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report for June 2007, but this did not happen. It is still under review by the CDC and the Department of Health & Human Services.

  15. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Double stranded DNA virus – more than 100 types • 60 types  cutaneous infection  skin warts • 40 types mucosal & genital infection • Genital, laryngeal, rectal warts & cervical abnormalities • No cross protection between types • Certain types PROMOTE (virus infection is necessary but not sufficient to cause) 99+% of cervical cancer • Type 16 causes 50%; Types 16 + 18 cause 70% • Type 16 causes 10% of HPV genital infection in ♀s • Causes squamous cell & adenocarcinoma • Types 6 & 11  90% of anogenital warts
