Ultrasound and Immunological Findings in Patients With Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA) (SIRVA)

January 16, 2020 updated by: Christoph Berger, University Hospital, Basel, Switzerland

Accidental vaccine injection into adjunct shoulder structures can cause tissue damage, termed Shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA). The immunopathological mechanisms and consequences of SIRVA are unknown.

The study assesses the clinical and immunological consequences of an influenza vaccine if accidentally administered in periarticular space.
