ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Evaluar el efecto de la inmunización con vacuna neumocóccica conjugada 7 valente (VCN7), sobre la colonización nasofaríngea por S. pneumoniae (SPN). MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Se estudiaron dos grupos con diferente esquema de vacunación: grupo I (2-6 meses de edad) 3+1, grupo II (7-11 meses) 2+1, con refuerzo a los 15 meses de edad. Se realizaron cultivos nasofaríngeos antes de cada inmunización y posterior al refuerzo; se analizó de forma global y pareada las proporciones de los niños colonizados por SPN, serotipos vacunales, no vacunales y resistencia a la penicilina. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 183 niños; 93 en el grupo I y 90 en el grupo II. En el grupo I disminuyeron los serotipos vacunales en la 3ª muestra. En el grupo II aumentaron los serotipos no vacunales y disminuyeron los serotipos vacunales antes del refuerzo. En ambos grupos hay una tendencia a disminuir la resistencia a penicilina. CONCLUSIÓN: La VCN7 ocasiona un reemplazo de serotipos en la colonización nasofaríngea antes del refuerzo.


OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV7) immunization on pneumococcal nasopharyngeal colonization with S. pneumoniae (SPN). MATERIAL AND METHODS: We studied two groups with different vaccination schedules, group I (2-6 months of age) 3+1 and group II (7 -11 months) 2+1, with a booster at 15 months. Nasopharyngeal cultures were obtained before administering each vaccination dose and after booster. Paired and global analyses were carried out of the proportions of children colonized by SPN, vaccine serotype, no vaccine serotype and resistance to penicillin. RESULTS: A total of 183 children were enrolled; 93 in group I and 90 in group II. In group I, there was a decrease in vaccine serotypes in the third sample. In group II, there was an increase in non-vaccine serotypes and a decrease in vaccine serotypes before booster. Both groups showed a trend toward decreased resistance to penicillin. CONCLUSION: PCV7 caused serotype replacement in nasopharyngeal colonization before the booster.
