, PC707 Pharmacology Module 2
Infection/Antimicrobials Questions And
Answers

Consideration before you immunize • Current Immunization Status of Patient


• Immunization Schedule current recommended from CDC

• Asses for Contraindications & Precautions

• Permission -Vaccine Information Sheet (VIS)




Immunizations administration basics: When giving immunizations, make sure they are

being given in the right route with the right length of needle (SC,IM).




Gestational age at which TDaP is recommended between 27-36 weeks




Why is TDaP administration recommended between 27-36 weeks? Allow time for mom to

build up immune response to transfer to the baby & have that immune response last until infant

can be immunized themselves for pertussis

Infection/Antimicrobials Questions And
Answers

DTaP Diptheria, Tetanus, acellular Pertussis.


Formulation used for people 2 months to 6 years old




Populations for which pertussis can be lethal newborns and elderly




Situations when TDaP can & should be given at other times in pregnancy? Injury with

wound, pertussis outbreak, or other circumstance where it would be necessary.




Primary reason TDaP is given during pregnancy & why we teach close contacts to also receive

to protect baby against Pertussis.




Live vaccine Live form, attenuated ; non-infective with low chance of causing disease;

leads to long term immunity. (best and longest immune response)

more likely to produce side effects

Infection/Antimicrobials Questions And
Answers
Live vaccines contraindications: Do NOT give live vaccines to:


1. pregnant women

2. immunocompormised people

3. Infants < 12 mos of age




Killed Vaccine contraindications: Encephalopathy, true allergy (egg > influenza)




Reason Infants < 12 months should not get LIVE vaccines they are not mature enough to

build a strong immune response.




Killed vaccine Contains dead but antigenically active organism; might cause an immune

response with symptoms but cannot cause the actual disease.




Disadvantage of killed vaccine Provide a shorter duration of protection & needs to be

boosted more often.
