[Expected incidence of post-vaccination complications in vaccination programs].

Incidence rate of the harder adverse immunization reactions in the Program of the vaccination children in Federation Bosnia and Herzegovina is similar in the terms of kind and frequency as in the countries with high quality programme of the vaccination. In the period from 2002-2003 year cases of the adverse reactions were not registered, as vaccinal form of polyomyelitis, toxic syndrome or sudden acute deaths. The adverse events following immunization were classified in relation to 100,000 applicated vaccines, the incidence rate of supurative lymphadenitis at BCG vaccination reported are 32@100000, anaphylaxia at MMR vaccination 0.8@100000, DTP vaccination encephalopathy 1@100000 and at TT vaccination anaphylaxia 2@100000 administered vaccines.

[Vaccination complications after oral poliomyelitis vaccination (author's transl)].

A vaccination complication is only to be recognized if, taking into consideration the incubation time, the clinical picture coincides with that of spontaneous poliomyelitis. Apart from exceptional cases, virological studies are only of importance for the assessment if they are carried out in the acute or subacute stages. Only six out of more than 150 cases could be accepted as vaccination complications.

[Suspected vaccination complications or atypical vaccination course. Diagnostic assessment of 58 vaccine recipients].

The "list of recommended vaccinations" of the regional Ministries of Health is the legal basis for routine vaccination programmes in each region of Germany; the recommendations of the Federal Commission on Vaccinations, "STIKO", are not legally binding. These programmes of the different regions provide legal grounds for determining claims for damage against a vaccinating doctor. In cases of damage, the Ministry of Health is liable for the damage to a patient caused by a recommended vaccination. Irrespective of these clear and comprehensive legal provisions, in case of an atypical course the patient is entitled to careful diagnosis of the complaint and appropriate medical treatment. However, later claims by the patient for damage can only be decided correctly if the necessary diagnostic data have been carefully collected at the acute stage of the disease. In our 58 patients suffering from atypical vaccination courses or suspected complications, we were able to show in each case that the symptoms are the result of interference by infectious diseases or that there was some other clear diagnosis; in no case did we find that the vaccination had caused disease or permanent damage.

Emergency medicine tools to manage smallpox (vaccinia) vaccination complications: clinical practice guideline and policies and procedures.

In December 2002, the federal government began a program to immunize approximately 500000 civilian public health and health care workers with smallpox (vaccinia) vaccine as a part of our pre-event defense against bioterrorism. First responders will likely follow, and the general US population might be offered vaccination in the next 1 to 2 years. Recent reports that suggest the possible association of the vaccine to adverse cardiac events (including deaths), liability concerns for hospitals, and the availability of compensation for workers with vaccine complications have significantly reduced voluntary participation. Vaccinees might experience robust primary takes or serious adverse events, including viral or even bacterial cellulitides, encephalitis, progressive skin destruction, and other life-threatening complications. With the increasing prevalence of immune suppression from both diseases and immunosuppressive medications, complications might be seen in higher frequency than previously reported. Emergency medicine providers and staff must become familiar with clinical presentations and management of vaccine complications. In addition, policies and procedures must be developed to prevent unimmunized providers from inadvertently contacting the active vaccination sites of their patients and, if the providers themselves have active vaccination sites, to protect their patients and their own families.

[BCG vaccination: characteristics of drugs and causes of vaccinal complications].

Series of BCG and BCG-M vaccines causing complications in children vaccinated in Russia's areas in 1995 were checked up. All the series met the Russian and international specifications for BCG and BCG-M vaccines. The incidence of postvaccinal lymphadenitis was 5 times less than the limit laid down by an official article. The properties of the agents produced no significant effect on the number and type of postvaccinal complications. The risk for complications was much less when BCG-M was used. The risk factors were defects of intradermal vaccine administration and contaminant abnormalities prior to vaccination and at the moment of local vaccinal response.
