Control and Prevention of Invasive Pneumococcal Disease: A Current and Historical Perspective.
Pediatric Annals 2023 March
Although significant progress has been made in reducing the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in children, IPD remains a continued threat. Since the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs), rates of IPD and non-IPD have substantially decreased. However, serotype replacement reversed some of the benefits of PCV7 and, more recently, PCV13. Several replacement serotypes are antibiotic resistant, which is a cause of concern for providers. The introduction of the higher-valency conjugate vaccines PCV15 and PCV20 is expected to provide greater serotype coverage; unfortunately, these vaccines do not include some of the recently emerged serotypes. Recommendations for the use of the 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine in high-risk populations may be modified because of the effectiveness of the newer PCVs. Pediatricians must be aware of the new vaccine strategies for the prevention of IPD and the manifestations of IPD so that prompt empirical therapy can be initiated when treatment is required.
