  1. Part II: Vaccine Administration

  2. Objectives • Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: • Identifying common administration errors and strategies to prevent them from occurring.

  3. Who is susceptible to a vaccine preventable disease?

  4. Time to Vaccinate? What are the vaccine needs of your client?

  5. General Contraindications • Permanent Contraindications: All vaccines • Anaphylactic reaction to prior dose of vaccine • Anaphylactic reaction to a component of the vaccine

  6. General Contraindications/ Precautions • Temporary Contraindications or Precautions • Moderate-to-severe illness (all vaccines) • Pregnancy /possibility of pregnancy in next 4 weeks • Immunosuppression • Administration of blood products within the last year • Long term steroid use Note: additional contraindications and precautions apply to specific vaccines

  7. Contraindications & Precautions

  8. Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) What are VISs? • CDC-developed • Standardized • Mandatory

  9. Vaccine Information Statements • Required by federal law: • Most current VIS • Record date the VIS was given • Record publication date of VIS

  10. Vaccine Information Statements

  11. Vaccine Information Statements • Email notification www.cdc.gov/vaccines/Pubs/vis/default.htm

  12. Frequently Asked Questions - VISs • Are VISs "informed consent" forms? • No – there is no Federal or State requirement for an informed consent form. • Must the patient or parent/guardian physically take away a copy of each VIS, or can we simply let them read a copy? • Ideally the person getting the shot, or their representative, should actually take each VIS home. • Patients may choose not to take the VIS, but the provider should offer them the opportunity to do so.

  13. Frequently Asked Questions - VISs • Does the Immunization Branch still laminate or provide VISs? • No • Where can I get VISs in other languages? • Immunization Action Coalition’s (IAC) website www.immunize.org

  14. Administering Vaccines: IM & SC Injections 45° angle 90° angle Skin Subcutaneous tissue Muscle Subcutaneous (SC) Injection Intramuscular (IM) Injection

  18. Be Prepared to Administer Vaccines Correctly • Ensure staff are adequately trained • Provide current immunization education • Rights of Medication Administration • Right patient • Right medication • Right time • Right dosage • Right manner/route • Right documentation

  19. HELP!“A community health center in our area inadvertently gave a 5-year-old a dose of Tdap, instead of a DTaP. What is their next best step to take under this circumstance?  HELP! “Someone in our clinic gave a 50-year-old DTaP instead of Tdap. How should this be handled?”

  20. What to do About DTaP and Tdap Errors

  21. Another Source of Confusion: Varicella-Containing Vaccines Varivax (chickenpox) (12 mos of age and older) Zostavax (shingles) (60 yrs of age and older)

  22. HELP! “One of the nurses gave a 1-year-old Zostavax vaccine.  She knew it was not Varivax, but the physician told her it was ‘basically the same thing’ and to give it. I know this was a HUGE medication error. Does the dose count?” ANSWER: Yes, this is a serious vaccine administration error. The dose should be counted as valid.

  23. HELP! “A 60-year-old patient was given varicella instead of zoster vaccine. Does the patient still need zoster vaccine? If so, how long an interval should we wait after varicella vaccine before the zoster vaccine?” ANSWER: The dose is not valid and the patient should be given a dose of zoster vaccine during the same visit. If the error is not immediately detected, a dose of zoster vaccine should be administered as soon as feasible but not within 28 days of the varicella vaccine dose to prevent potential interference of 2 doses of live attenuated virus.

  24. Diluents are NOT Interchangeable Wrong diluent is inadvertently used, the immunization may need to be repeated. The diluent for MMR, MMRV, Varicella, and Zoster are the same

  25. HELP! “One of the nursing staff reconstituted ActHib with the diluent from MMR instead. Does it need to be repeated or will it be okay?” ANSWER: If the wrong diluent is mistakenly used, the vaccination needs to be repeated.

  26. Giving the Wrong Vaccine will Rarely Cause a Serious Complication, but… Extra dose may lead to more vigorous local reaction Patient may be left unprotected against disease Additional cost for wrong dose Inconvenience to patient or parent May cause loss of confidence in provider or a dissatisfied parent

  27. HELP! “If an adult patient got a child’s dose of hepatitis B vaccine, should he be given an adult dose? If so, how soon?” ANSWER: If you give less than a full age-appropriate dose of any vaccine, the dose is invalid. You should revaccinate the person with the appropriate dose as soon as feasible.

  28. Administrative Error: Combining Vaccines into one Syringe that Shouldn’t be Together Two different vaccines should NEVER be combined in the same syringe unless FDA licensed for use in this way +

  29. Administration Error:Using Expired Vaccine

  30. HELP! “A physician just called and gave a child a dose of expired vaccine. I am assuming the dose should be re-administered. Please advise.” ANSWER: The dose should be repeated.

  31. HELP!“One of our nurses accidentally gave Zostavax IM instead of SC. Can you tell me what we need to do?” ANSWER: CDC says vaccines given by the wrong route can be counted as valid with two exceptions -- HepB or rabies vaccine -- if not given IM should be repeated.

  37. Questions about Vaccine Administration?

  38. Put Your Knowledge into Practice! • Question: You have a 6 month old infant in today who needs: DTaP #3, HiB #3, Hep B #3, PCV #3, and Rotavirus #3. Into which site (indicated on the chart) would you administer each vaccine dose?
