Introduction Invasive Pneumococcal Disease (IPD) causes significant morbidity and mortality in children under 5 y. Colombia introduced PCV10 vaccination 2012, the Neumocolombia network has been monitoring IPD pediatric patients since 2008. Materials methods This study is a secondary analysis of prospective cohort involving with admitted to 17 hospitals Colombia, from January 1st, 2017, December 31st, 2022. We present data on serotypes (Spn), clinical characteristics, resistance patterns....
Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) have decreased pneumonia in children. Colombia introduced mass vaccination with PCV10 2012. Cases of pneumococcal from 10 hospitals were included. Two periods compared: pre-PCV10: 2008–2011 and post-PCV10: 2014–2019. The objective was to compare epidemiological clinical characteristics before after vaccination. A total 370 cases Serotypes 1 (15, 11.2%) 14 (33, 24.6%) the most frequent pre-PCV10 period, only 4 (3%) serotype 19A case (0.7%) 3. From period...
Introduction: With the use of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines(PCV), behavior invasive disease(IPD) has changed relative to serotype distribution. The introduction these vaccines in national immunization programs reduced incidence IPD, with a marked decrease circulation serotypes included vaccine used each country. However, subsequent emergence other not vaccine, such 19A case PCV7 and PCV10, been documented.Materials methods: This was series study (2008–2017) pediatric patients admitted 10...
Introduction Acute bacterial meningitis (ABM) is a public health problem. The disease has reemerged after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) due to an increase in serotypes that are not covered. objective was determine changes incidence before and 10-valent vaccine (PCV10) Colombia. Methods This multicenter study conducted 17 hospitals Data were collected from January 2008 December 2019 10 Bogotá 2017 seven Cali, Medellín Cartagena. data grouped into three periods:...
Objetivo: Describir las características clínicas, microbiológicas y los desenlaces de bacteriemias primarias por S. pneumoniae ocurridas en población pediátrica hospitalizada instituciones alta complejidad, pertenecientes a la Red Neumocolombia (2017-2019). Metodología: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, longitudinal, exploratorio con alcance analítico, donde se tomó información historias clínicas hemocultivos positivos para sin otro foco infeccioso, realizados hospitales pediátricos,...
Objectives: To determine the role of compression elastography cervix in predicting preterm birth.Methods: The use 20 pregnant women period from 27 to 33 weeks gestation.10 with a long and 10 short (<25 mm).Qualitative assessment: Cervical elasticity index (CEI) was compared length examined for correlation term delivery.Results: A more accurate between parameters date delivery (90%) revealed, while less (60%).Conclusions: Compression (qualitative assessment) has an important delivery.
Abstract Background Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) have decreased pneumonia in children. Colombia introduced massive vaccination with PCV10 2012. Methods cases from 10 hospitals part of an active surveillance network for invasive pneumococcal disease were included. Two periods compared, pre-PCV10: 2008-2012 and post-PCV10: 2014-2019. The objective was to compare characteristics outcomes before after PCV10. Results 370 Serotype 1(15, 11.2%) 14 (33, 24.6%) the most frequent Pre-PCV10,...
