Abstract

Whooping cough is an acute, contagious respiratory disease that can be fatal in childhood, with serious complications, especially in newborns and early infancy. Life-long immunity is not achieved with childhood pertussis vaccination. Infants who do not have protective antibodies belong to their mothers are susceptible to pertussis infection until they develop immunity with childhood pertussis vaccination. In this period, strategies have been developed to protect infants from infection with pertussis. In this review, the protection methods of newborn pertussis by “cocoon strategy” and “maternal immunization” were evaluated.

Yenidoğanın Boğmacadan Korunması

Abstract

Boğmaca, çocukluk çağında ciddi komplikasyonlarla seyreden, özellikle yenidoğan ve erken bebeklikte ölümcül olabilen akut, bulaşıcı bir solunum yolu hastalığıdır. Çocukluk çağında yapılan boğmaca aşısı ile ömür boyu bağışıklık sağlanamamaktadır. Anneden geçen koruyucu antikorları olmayan bebekler boğmaca aşısı ile immünite oluşturana kadar boğmaca enfeksiyonuna duyarlıdır. Bu dönemde bebekleri boğmaca enfeksiyonundan korumaya yönelik stratejiler geliştirilmiştir. Bu derlemede yenidoğanı boğmacadan “koza stratejisi” ve “maternal bağışıklama” ile koruma yöntemleri değerlendirilmiştir.

Keywords
