  4. National Obstetric Grand Rounds: Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Influenza and Pregnancy • Overview of influenza (Dr. Jamieson) • Infection Control Guidance (Dr. Jamieson) • Testing and Treatment (Dr. Rasmussen) • Vaccination (Dr. Rasmussen) • The Atlanta Experience (Dr. Ault)

  5. Pregnant women at increased risk for severe influenza illness • No evidence that they are more susceptible • Increased mortality from influenza during previous pandemics (1918 & 1957) • Increased risk of complications related to seasonal influenza

  6. Risk of Hospital Admission for Respiratory Illness during Influenza Season by Pregnancy Status* among Women with No Comorbidity, Nova Scotia, 1990-2002 *Compared to year before pregnancy Dodds et al., CMAJ 176:463-8, 2007

  7. Why are pregnant women at increased risk for severe influenza illness? • Mechanical, hormonal, immunologic alterations in pregnancy • Changes in respiratory and cardiovascular systems - increased heart rate, stroke volume, and oxygen consumption; decreased lung volumes • Immunologic changes – shift away from cell-mediated immunity • These changes render pregnant women more susceptible and more severely affected by certain viral pathogens

  8. Fetal concerns regarding influenza during pregnancy • Effects of influenza on the fetus are unknown and difficult to predict • In seasonal influenza, viremia is believed to occur infrequently and placental transmission appears to be rare – may differ with novel influenza strains • Hyperthermia is a risk factor for some types of birth defects and other adverse outcomes

  9. Special Health Care Delivery Challenges for Pregnant Women • Guidelines regarding nonpharmaceutical interventions might present special challenges • Pregnant women will require health care access (prenatal care and delivery services) • Pregnant women might be reluctant to comply with recommendations because of concerns about fetus

  10. Influenza Vaccination Coverage among Recommended Adult Populations, National Health Interview Survey, 1989-2005 Data from National Health Interview Survey Lu et al., Vaccine 26:1786-93, 2008

  11. Novel Swine-Origin Influenza A (H1N1) Virus Investigation Team, N Engl J Med 361, 2009

  12. Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Influenza • Illness resulted from quadruple reassortment virus of human, avian and swine influenza virus genes • Viruses susceptible to oseltamivir and zanamivir, resistant to amantadine and rimantadine • Median age – 20 years, range 3 months to 81 years; 60% were 18 years or younger (based on 642 confirmed cases reported 4/15-5/5/2009) Novel Swine-Origin Influenza A (H1N1) Virus Investigation Team, N Engl J Med 361, 2009 CDC, MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep 58:536-41, 2009 and 58:497-500, 2009

  13. Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Influenza (continued) • In the US, most confirmed cases characterized by self-limited, uncomplicated febrile respiratory illness: similar to seasonal influenza (cough, sore throat, rhinorrhea, headache, and myalgia) – 38% with vomiting or diarrhea (based on 642 confirmed cases reported 4/15-5/5/2009) Novel Swine-Origin Influenza A (H1N1) Virus Investigation Team, N Engl J Med 361, 2009 CDC, MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep 58:536-41, 2009 and 58:497-500, 2009

  14. Jamieson DJ et al., Lancet 374:451-8, 2009

  15. Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Influenza and Pregnancy • 34 confirmed or probable cases of pandemic (H1N1) 2009 influenza in pregnant women (April 15-May 18, 2009) in US (34/5469 or 0.62% of total) • 11 women (32%) were admitted to hospital • 6 deaths among pregnant woman with pandemic (H1N1) 2009 influenza (April 15-June 16, 2009) (6/45 or 13% of total) Jamieson DJ et al., Lancet 374:451-8, 2009

  16. Presenting Manifestations in Pregnant Women with Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 InfluenzaUnited States, April 15 to May 18, 2009 Jamieson DJ et al., Lancet 374:451-8, 2009

  17. Pregnancy Trimester at Time of Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Influenza InfectionUnited States, April 15-May 18, 2009 Jamieson DJ et al., Lancet 374:451-8, 2009

  18. Admission Rates for Pregnant Women and General Population with Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 InfluenzaUnited States, April 15 to May 18, 2009 Risk Ratio 4.3, 95% CI 2.3-7.8 Jamieson DJ et al., Lancet 374:451-8, 2009

  19. Deaths in Pregnant Women due to Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 InfluenzaUnited States, April 15 to June 16, 2009 Jamieson DJ et al., Lancet 374:451-8, 2009

  20. Additional Clinical Information on Deaths among Pregnant Women • All patients developed primary viral pneumonia with subsequent ARDS requiring mechanical ventilation • Pregnancy outcomes: 5 with cesarean delivery (27-36 weeks gestation – 3 in ICU or ED), 1 fetal loss at 11 weeks • Length of time from symptom onset to receipt of antiviral medication was 6-15 days (median 9) • Length of time from presentation for medical care until receipt of antiviral treatment was 2-14 days (median 4.5)

  21. Updated Information on Deaths among Pregnant Women • ~ 5% of deaths in US from pandemic (H1N1) 2009 Influenza are among pregnant women (based on 484 H1N1 deaths reported to CDC by August 20, 24 of whom were pregnant) • Pregnant women ~1% of the general population

  22. Infection Control in Obstetric Settings: General Principles • Keep pregnant outpatients and inpatients separated from ill and potentially ill patients • Requires system for rapidly assessing influenza-like symptoms and triaging patients

  23. Considerations regarding novel H1N1 in obstetric settings (July 6, 2009) • Place surgical mask on ill mother during labor & delivery, if tolerable • Mother should consider avoiding close contact with infant until: • antiviral medication for 48 hours • fever has fully resolved • she can control coughs and secretions • When in contact with the infant, mother should do following until 7 days after symptom onset and symptom-free for 24 hours: • wear a facemask • change to clean gown or clothing • adhere to strict hand hygiene and cough etiquette

  24. CDC Interim Guidelines • Testing for 2009 H1N1 influenza • Antiviral treatment and prophylaxis • Seasonal and 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccination

  25. Influenza Diagnostic Testing *rRT-PCR – real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction http://www.cdc.gov/flu/professionals/diagnosis/0809testingguide.htm www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/guidance/rapid_testing.htm

  26. Testing and Treatment • Treatment is recommended for pregnant women with suspected or confirmed influenza, regardless of trimester of pregnancy • Do not delay treatment because of a negative rapid influenza diagnostic test or inability to test or while awaiting test results

  27. Treatment • Oseltamivir (Tamiflu®) • 75 mg po bid for 5 days • BEST if started within 48 hours of symptom onset • Oseltamivir (Tamiflu®) and zanamivir (Relenza®) are FDA pregnancy category C • Available data suggest not human teratogens Tanaka et al. CMAJ 181:55-8, 2009 • Considering severity of disease, treatment benefit outweighs potential risk • Acetaminophen for fever

  28. Treatment • Rapid access to antiviral medications is essential • Actions that might reduce delays in treatment initiation • Informing pregnant women of signs and symptoms of influenza and need for early treatment • Ensuring rapid access to telephone consultation and clinical evaluation • Considering empiric treatment of patients at higher risk for influenza complications based on telephone contact

  29. Post-exposure Chemoprophylaxis • Consider if close contact with suspected or confirmed case • Zanamivir (Relenza®) Two 5mg inhalations qd • Oseltamivir (Tamiflu®) 75 mg qd • 10 day duration • Close monitoring and early treatment is an alternative to chemoprophylaxis

  30. Post-exposure Chemoprophylaxis • Close contact: defined as having cared for or lived with a person who is a confirmed, probable, or suspected case of influenza, or having been in a setting where there was a high likelihood of contact with respiratory droplets and/or body fluids of such a person • Examples • sharing eating or drinking utensils • physical examination • any other contact between persons likely to result in exposure to respiratory droplets

  31. ACIP Recommendations for Seasonal Flu Vaccination • Influenza vaccine is recommended for people at increased risk of severe infection, including women who will be pregnant during influenza season • This includes all pregnant women in any trimester

  32. Need for Seasonal Flu Vaccine • Pregnant women who get influenza are at higher risk for serious complications • Influenza vaccine given during pregnancy prevents febrile respiratory illness in pregnant women and infants and lab-proven influenza in infants up to 6 months of age Zaman et al., NEJM 359:1555-64, 2008

  33. ACIP Recommendations for 2009 H1N1 Vaccination • Pregnant women • Household contacts and caregivers for children younger than 6 months of age • Healthcare and emergency medical services personnel • All people from 6 months through 24 years of age • Persons aged 25 through 64 years who have health conditions associated with higher risk of influenza-related complications

  34. Need for 2009 H1N1 Vaccine • Pregnant women who get 2009 H1N1 influenza at higher risk for hospitalization, severe illness and death • Seasonal flu vaccine not expected to protect against 2009 H1N1 influenza Jamieson DJ et al., Lancet 374:451-8, 2009

  35. Vaccine Types • Live attenuated vaccine (not licensed for use in pregnant women) • Multidose inactivated vaccine • Prefilled single dose inactivated vaccine (preservative-free)

  36. When to Administer • Can be given at any time during pregnancy • Can also be given postpartum, providing indirect protection for infants <6 months • Recommended even for women who have had influenza-like illness

  37. How to Administer • Inactivated vaccines against seasonal flu and 2009 H1N1 can be administered simultaneously • Use different anatomic sites • 2009 H1N1 vaccine - ancillary supplies will also be provided (needles, syringes, sharps containers, alcohol swabs, vaccination record card) • 2009 H1N1 vaccine approved by FDA • One dose for persons > 10 years of age

  38. How to Obtain 2009 H1N1 Vaccine • Vaccine expected to be available in October • CDC will allocate vaccine to states based on population • States will determine where vaccine will be shipped (mix of public and private settings) • Contact state health department to express interest in receiving vaccine (list of contacts on CDC website)

  39. 2009 H1N1 Vaccine Financing • Vaccine available at no-cost for providers • Providers CANNOT charge a fee for vaccine since it is being provided free of charge by the federal government • Providers can bill insurance or charge the patient a vaccine administration fee • Patient cannot be charged more than regional Medicare vaccine administration fee

  40. 2009 H1N1 Vaccine Financing (continued) • Providers are encouraged to vaccinate under- or uninsured patients • If unable, providers should refer these patients to public health settings

  41. 2009 H1N1 Vaccine Safety • Anticipated to be similar to seasonal flu vaccine • Clinical trials in pregnant women began mid-September

  42. CDC Interim Guidelines • http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu • http://www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu/pregnancy/ • http://www.cdc.gov/H1N1flu/clinician_pregnant.htm

  43. Conclusions • During an influenza pandemic, pregnant women are expected to be a high-risk population, based on the experience with previous pandemics and with seasonal influenza • Data available thus far suggest that pregnant women are at increased risk for complications and death from 2009 H1N1 influenza

  44. Conclusions • Pregnant women should be informed about the signs and symptoms of 2009 H1N1 influenza • Pregnant women who present with signs and symptoms consistent with influenza should be treated empirically with oseltamivir • Post-exposure prophylaxis with zanamivir or oseltamivir can be considered for pregnant women

  45. Conclusions • Both seasonal and 2009 H1N1 influenza vaccines recommended for pregnant women • 2009 H1N1 vaccine safety expected to be similar to seasonal influenza vaccine • Providers should contact state health department to express interest in obtaining 2009 H1N1 vaccine
