Cocoon Vaccination Among Mothers of Very Preterm Infants.
Objectives: Preterm survivors are at risk of acquiring communicable diseases post-discharge. Cocoon strategy is immunization of close contacts to prevent infections in such vulnerable individuals. This study assessed the coverage of cocoon vaccines among mothers of very preterm infants.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed the proportion of mothers of very preterm (< 30 weeks) infants who received the eligible cocoon vaccines [tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap), influenza, and varicella] in the antenatal or postnatal period.
Results: Seventy-five out of 159 (47.2%) mothers had received all three cocoon vaccines; the median postnatal age of receiving vaccines was 38 (23, 55) days. Influenza and Tdap vaccines were administered to 64.1% and 48.5% mothers, respectively, either antenatally or postnatally. Only 49.2% (34 out of 69) of the fathers were covered for cocoon vaccines.
Conclusion: Less than 50% mothers were compliant with cocoon vaccination protocol. This calls for more intensive efforts towards improving vaccine coverage among close contacts of high-risk infants.
