Article information

Los receptores pediátricos de trasplante de órgano sólido tienen un alto riesgo de padecer diversas enfermedades infecciosas. Algunos niños no han recibido las vacunas recomendadas para su edad, antes del trasplante. Para reducir el riesgo de morbilidad y mortalidad de las enfermedades prevenibles mediante vacunación, es importante que los médicos que tratan a estos niños vigilen su estado vacunal. No hay consenso sobre el esquema de inmunización más apropiado para los receptores de trasplante de órgano sólido, por lo que se revisa la información disponible sobre la seguridad y la eficacia de las inmunizaciones, y se describen las estrategias para evitar las enfermedades prevenibles mediante vacunación en los niños receptores de trasplante de órgano sólido.

Inmunosupresión

Pediatric solid-organ transplant recipients are at high risk for various infectious diseases. Many children are not fully vaccinated before transplantation. To reduce the risk of morbidity and mortality from vaccine-preventable disease, physicians treating pediatric solid-organ transplant recipients should monitor the immunization status of the-se patients. Consensus on the most appropriate immunization schedule for solid-organ transplant recipients is lacking. Therefore, we provide a review of the currently available data on immunization safety and efficacy and describe strategies to avoid vaccine-preventable diseases in pediatric solid-organ transplant recipients.
