Overview
The goal of Primary prevention is to prevent the occurrence of an illness or a disease before it ever occurs. In the case of bacterial pneumonia, primary prevention can be achieved by the administration of vaccination as well as attempting to control underlying comorbidities that may predispose an individual to pneumonia. When certain conditions are present, it may also be helpful to treat with prophylactic antibiotics.[1] Educating the public as well as identifying those most susceptible to infection can help reduce the risk of pneumonia.
Vaccination
-Routinely administered vaccines include:
- Pneumococcus (Intramuscular Conjugate or polysaccharide vaccine)
- Annual vaccine against H. influenza(Intramusuclar killed vaccine)
Advantages | Disadvanatges | Indications | |
---|---|---|---|
PCV13 (Conjugate vaccine) |
|
|
|
PPSV23 (Polysaccharide vaccine) |
|
|
|
PCV13 + PPSV23 |
