Abstract

Diseases caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae ( S. pneumoniae ) can be either invasive or non-invasive. In adults, pneumococcal infections most often occur as pneumonia, one of the leading causes of hospitalisation in these patients in poland. Multiple factors predispose patients to the severe course of pneumococcal disease, including age, comorbidities, immune disorders and unhealthy behaviours, whereas the accumulation of coexisting conditions leads to risk stacking. therefore, prophylactic vaccinations should be the preferred form of protection against pneumococcal infections in adults, based on high vaccination effectiveness and a relatively low risk of adverse events. Importantly, the current recommendations need to be updated in the context of epidemiological changes and the registration of new conjugate vaccines. this publication aims to present the current knowledge on the prevention of pneumococcal disease among adults and establish practical recommendations on the appropriate immunisation schedules used in poland.
成人肺炎球菌疫苗接种——波兰最新建议
肺炎链球菌(S. pneumoniae)引起的疾病可以是侵入性的,也可以是非侵入性的。在成人中,肺炎球菌感染最常以肺炎的形式发生,这是波兰这些患者住院的主要原因之一。多种因素使患者易患肺炎球菌疾病的严重病程,包括年龄、合并症、免疫紊乱和不健康行为,而共存疾病的积累导致风险叠加。因此,基于疫苗接种的高有效性和相对较低的不良事件风险,预防性疫苗接种应是预防成人肺炎球菌感染的首选形式。重要的是,当前的建议需要在流行病学变化和新结合疫苗注册的背景下进行更新。本出版物旨在介绍目前预防成人肺炎球菌疾病的知识,并就波兰使用的适当免疫接种时间表提出实用建议。
