Vaccinations for pregnant women: Protect your child in good time!
vaccinations are a decisive factor in both before and during pregnancy, as current recommendations from the gynecology society ESIDOG underline. Medicals Philipp Fößleitner emphasizes that certain vaccinations should be carried out before family planning, including measles, wet flatterers (chickenpox) and hepatitis B. These vaccinations not only protect the mother -to -be, but also the unborn. Warning is particularly about rubella, which can lead to serious malformations. For pregnant women, it is recommended to be vaccinated against flu, whooping cough (pertussis) and covid-19 during pregnancy in order to minimize the risk of severe courses, according to Volksblatt .
vaccination plans and recommendations
The STIKO (permanent vaccination commission) recommends pregnant women to be vaccinated against influenza from the second third of pregnancy, with increased risk in the first third. Pertussis vaccinations should also be carried out in the third trimester, whereby the vaccination protection for the newborn is guaranteed by antibodies via the placenta. A flu is difficult to pregnancy and is often a reason for hospital stays in young children. The situation is similar with the RSV vaccination, which should be carried out between the 24th and 36th week of pregnancy to protect the child, as rki In addition, vaccination in the second third of pregnancy is recommended for pregnant women with inadequate COVID-19 vaccination status.
It is important that living vaccines such as the MMR vaccination during pregnancy should not be administered. Gynecologists should therefore inform you early about possible vaccinations to ensure the health of mothers and children. It is also advisable to vaccinate partners and close relatives in order to intensify the protective measures. These vaccination recommendations are part of a comprehensive strategy to increase the vaccination rate and to protect against seasonal diseases, both for pregnant women and for their newborns.Details | |
