Paediatric Pneumococcal Pneumonia in Malaysia Prior to and During Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) Implementation (MSIP PCV)
Evaluating the Burden of Paediatric Pneumococcal Pneumonia in Malaysia Prior to and During Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine (PCV) Implementation

Detailed Description
This study will be a multi-centre prospective case-control study and the recruitment of clinically diagnosed pneumonia patients and healthy controls aged 5 years and below will be conducted at the three university hospitals; University Malaya Medical Centre (UMMC), Sultan Ahmad Shah Medical Centre@International Islamic University Malaysia (SASMEC@IIUM) and Hospital University Sains Malaysia (HUSM). Subject recruitment and sample collection will be carried out for 24 months. Informed consent and general questionnaire will be administrated by the on-site researchers. Clinical samples will be taken according to approved protocol and local policy to include nasopharyngeal (NP) swab and urine sample. NP swab in a transport medium will be store at -80°C before shipment to the International Medical University (IMU) Advanced Microbiology Collaborative Research Laboratory (AMCRL) in Kuala Lumpur for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis. The data obtained may provide crucial data to support policy decisions on pneumococcal vaccination.
. Specific Objectives
- To determine the prevalence of Streptococcus pneumoniae (SPN) nasopharyngeal (NP) carriage among children 5 years of age and below with pneumonia and invasive pneumonia disease (IPD) using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis.
- To determine SPN serotypes in young children during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic by whole-genome sequencing analysis.
- To identify potential changes in clinical presentation and severity of pneumococcal infection in young children during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- To evaluate the correlations between SPN serotypes detected in NP carriage and urine sample from the same individual/child.
- To estimate sensitivity and specificity for SPN serotypes detection in urine among children with pneumonia and IPD.

Case
Children aged 5 years and below with clinically diagnosed pneumonia and attending the outpatient's department or admitted as a hospital inpatient at three sentinel sites. Pneumonia. Suspected pneumonia cases will be identified by a family physician or paediatrician based on medical history and clinical symptoms. Pneumonia is defined as (WHO Fact Sheet 2019) patient with history of:

Control
Healthy children aged 5 years and below without any intercurrent respiratory illness and who is in good health as determined by a brief medical history and/or clinical judgement of the investigator whose parent/LAR is willing and able to give informed consent.

Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Nasopharyngeal (NP) pneumococcal carriages prevalence rate among young children
Time Frame: 24 months
|
The absence/presence of nasopharyngeal pneumococcal carriages will be tested using standard bacteriological methods and Streptococcus Pneumoniae (SPN) isolates will be inoculated for DNA extraction and further tested by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for pneumococcal carriage detection.
