Epidemiology
- ~50% of pregnant women receive Tdap vaccine[30]
- 20% of pregnant women do not know their Tdap vaccination status[30]
Indications
- active immunization of infants & children 2 months-6 years against diphtheria, tetanus & pertussis[10]
- recommended for primary immunization & routine recall
- mandatory for school children in some states[16]
- acellular pertussis form (INFANRIX) indicated only for children previously immunized 3-4 times with whole cell DPT
- all adults 19-65+ who have not previously received TDaP; includng elderly > 65 years of age[8][12][13][16], especially if contact with infants < 12 months of age[38]
- pregnant women during each pregnancy, preferably after 20 weeks' gestation[14]; 27-36 weeks of gestation[33]; if not, then before discharge from the hospital*[19]
- adolescents & adults who have not received Tdap & who anticipate close contact with an infant < 12 months of age, preferably 2 weeks before contact with the infant[14]
- TdaP is acceptable alternative to dT[39]
* safe during pregnancy[25][27]
* decline in infant pertussis incidence (91%) in the U.K. after introduction of maternal immunization[26]
* 3rd trimester maternal immunization 78% effective & 91% effective at preventing pertussis-related hospitalization[37]
Contraindications
- patients with cancer
- immunodeficiency
- children with a history of neurologic disorders
- history of serious adverse reactions to pertussis vaccine
- do not use for treatment of diphtheria, tetanus or pertussis infection
- does not reduce risk of dementia
pregnancy category: generally safe in pregnancy[27]
Benefit/risk
- number needed to harm: 167 women need to be vaccinated to cause 1 excess case of chorioamionitis[7]
Dosage
Children 2 months-6 years
- 1st dose at 2-3 months recommended
- when pertussis is common in a community, the 1st dose can be given to infants as early as 6 weeks of age[28]
- 0.5 mL IM on 3 occasions at 4-8 week intervals
- reinforcing dose 1 year after 3rd injection
- booster when child is 6 years of age
Adolecents & adults
- Adaacel & Boostrix for adolescents; Adaacel for adults[3][4]
- one time dose with Tdap 0.5 mL IM
- booster vaccination with dT
- wounds, especially puncture wounds: vaccinate with dT
- Tdap + immune globulin if incomplete primary series[11]
Injection:
- diphtheria 6.7-12.5 Lf units, tetanus 5-12.5 Lf units, & whole cell pertussis 4 protective units/0.5 mL (7.5 mL vials)
- diphtheria 7.5 Lf units, tetanus 5 Lf units, & acellular pertussis 4 protective units/0.5 mL (5 mL vials)
Tripedia, Infantrix & Daptacel are considered interchangeable
Pharmacokinetics
- elimination: liver
- 1st dose provides immunity for about 1 year
Adverse effects
- convulsions, screaming episodes, malaise, sleepiness, focal neurologic signs, shock, collapse, chills, erythema, induration, rash, urticaria, local tenderness, arthralgias, fever, swelling, warmth, increased risk of haemophilus b infections in the week following vaccination, allergic or anaphylactic reactions (rare)
- all serious adverse reactions must be reported to the FDA
- local reactions less common in children 1-6 years when DTaP vaccine administered in the thigh rather than the arm[18]
- no association with type 1 diabetes[24]
- chorioamnionitis in pregnant women (6.1% vs. 5.5%)[7]
- Tdap during pregnancy not associated with increased risk for structural birth defects, including microcephaly[34]
Drug interactions
- prior immunization (within 5 years) with another tetanus- containing vaccine does not appear to increase risk for adverse outcomes during pregnancy[31]
Notes
- if adverse reaction occurs, immunization should be completed with diphtheria & tetanus toxoid (dT, Td).
- a nodule may be present at the site of injection for a few weeks
- 2012 worst year for pertussis in over 50 years despite mandatory vaccination programs[16]
- vaccine 53-64% effective[21]
- duration of effectiveness of acellular vaccine in question[16]
- TdaP effectiveness 73% after 1 year & 34% after 2-4 years[29]
- even more frequent vaccination will likely be proposed[16]
- increase in pertussis cases coincides with the shift from whole-cell to acellular pertussis vaccines[17]
- pertussis immunity drops soon after last (5th) dose of DTaP is given[20]
- children age 3-36 months 30 times more likely to be diagnosed with pertussis if inadequately vaccinated[22]
