According to the CDC, the weight of currently available scientific evidence does not support the hypothesis that MMR vaccine causes either autism or IBD. The landmark paper linking autism to the MMR vaccine (Lancet 1998;351:637-641) was retracted due to false claims in the article (Lancet 2010;375:445)
Adverse Reactions Associaed With Any Vaccine
• Local: induration, tenderness, redness,
swelling
• Systemic: fever, rash, irritability
• Allergic: urticaria, rhinitis, anaphylaxis
• Contraindications
• Moderate/severe illness ± fever
• Allergy to vaccine component
• No need to delay vaccination for mild URTI
Vaccination in Cases of Asplenia or Hyposplenia (such as Sickle Cell Disease)
• Should receive all routine immunizations,
including the yearly influenza vaccine
• No vaccines are contraindicated
• Susceptible to infection by encapsulated
bacteria (“SHiNE KISS” –S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, N. meningitidis, E. coli, Klebsiella, Salmonella, Group B Strep), so must add:
• Quadrivalent conjugated Meningococcal C vaccine (Men-C-ACYW) and Meningococcal B vaccine (4CMenB) at timeofdiagnosisif ≥2mo(2-3doses given at least 8 wk apart) with booster at 12-23 mo, every 3-5 yr until 7 yr of age, and every 5 yr thereafter
• Can omit routine Meningococcal-C- Conjugate at 12 mo of age if received Men-C-ACYW and expected to receive a second dose within 8 wk
• Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (Pneu-P-23) at age ≥2 yr and single booster ≥5 yr after first dose

Pregnant or planning to get pregnant within 3 mo Anaphylactic reaction to gelatin
Anaphylactic reaction to Baker’s yeast Same as MMR and Var vaccines

Immunocompromised
Egg-allergic individuals – Live attenuated influenza vaccine is not recommended for those with an egg allergy. In these individuals, trivalent or quadrivalent vaccine can be given in environment where anaphylaxis can be managed
Anaphylactic reaction to MenB vaccine or its components in the past
Contraindication
Evolving unstable neurologic disease Hyporesponsive/hypotonic following previous vaccine Anaphylactic reaction to neomycin or streptomycin
History of intussusception
Immunocompromised
Abdominal disorder (e.g. Meckel’s diverticulum)
Received blood products (e.g. immunoglobulin) within 42 d
• Consider single booster HiB at age >5 yr

** Currently only publicly funded for select groups (asplenia, antibody/complement deficiencies, cochlear implant recipients, HIV, close contacts with infected individuals)
dTAP = diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis vaccine; DTaP-IPV = diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, inactivated polio vaccine (i.e. Pentacel®, Pentavax®);
HepB = hepatitis B vaccine; Hib = Haemophilus influenzae type b conjugate vaccine; HPV-4 = human papillomavirus vaccine; Inf = influenza vaccine;
MMR = measles, mumps, rubella vaccine; Men = multicomponent meningococcal B vaccine; Men-C-C = meningococcal c conjugate vaccine;
MMRV = measles, mumps, rubella, varicella vaccine; Pneu-C-13 = pneumococcal 13-valent conjugate vaccine; Rot-1 = rotavirus oral vaccine; Var = varicella vaccine
Growth and Development
Growth
• growthisnotlinear
■ most rapid growth during first 2 yr and at puberty ■ tissues grow at different times
◆ first 2 yr = CNS; mid-childhood = lymphoid tissue; puberty = gonads • measurementofgrowth
■ premature infants (<37 wk) use corrected GA until age 2
■ body proportion = upper/lower segment ratio (use symphysis pubis as midpoint)
◆ newborn = 1.7, adult male = 0.9, adult female = 1.0
