Superdosagem da vacina 17DD contra febre amarela, em uma região do sul do Brasil

Abstract: INTRODUÇÃO: A febre amarela é uma arbovirose prevenível por uma vacina eficaz e segura. MÉTODOS: Acompanhamento clínico prospectivo de 49 pessoas que receberam uma superdosagem equivocada de vacina contra febre amarela, durante o surto de 2009, em uma localidade rural do Vale do Rio Pardo, no interior do Rio Grande do Sul. RESULTADOS: Durante os 45 dias de acompanhamento clínico, em apenas 1 (2,1%) caso houve a manifestação de um possível viscerotropismo agudo leve, como evento adverso pós-vacinal.

“…In a randomized, double-blinded, clinical trial, in which different doses of the vaccine were used, only one minor AE (local pain) was reported, and it was significantly correlated with a higher dose (52). In two Brazilian studies (in 1999 and 2009) in which 17DD vaccines erroneously given in higher doses (25 times and 10 times the normal dose respectively) were injected in a total of 63 patients (14 and 49 respectively), mostly adults, of both sexes, did not report an increase in major AEs; only one suspected YEL-AVD case occurred (in a 6-year-old girl, who had spontaneous resolution) (53, 54).…”

“…The current study has not enough power to define if lower yellow fever vaccine doses may be followed by a decrease in serious adverse events, such as vaccine-associated viscerotropic disease. On the other hand, information about the effect of large doses administered inadvertently is scant, based in few individuals and does not permit conclusions 29 , 30 …”

“…Only one reported symptoms, which included abdominal pain and arm pain and which resolved following supportive intravenous fluid treatment. Three other studies in Brazil documented administration of a 10 to 25-fold overdose of 17-DD yellow fever vaccine among 64 individuals; only one person was hospitalized (for possible acute vis-cerotropism and eventually recovered) [2325].…”
