February 3, 2021 updated by: Arto Palmu

Indirect Effects of Pneumococcal Vaccine on Nasopharyngeal Carriage: a FinIP Effectiveness Trial Satellite Study

The purpose of this study is to assess the indirect effects of a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine administered to infants on vaccinees' elder non-vaccinated siblings aged 3 to 7 years.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to assess the indirect effects of a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine administered to infants on vaccinees' elder non-vaccinated siblings aged 3 to 7 years.

This study includes a cross-sectional sampling of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs in 2011 and a register-based follow-up study for invasive disease, hospital-diagnosed pneumonia, tympanostomy tube surgery and outpatient antimicrobial treatment.
