Parents of children with asthma are encouraged by many health organizations to vaccinate their children against seasonal influenza viruses. Is the influenza vaccine efficient in preventing asthma exacerbation? Are current vaccinations safe to administer to children with asthma?
Infection with influenza viruses can cause substantial respiratory morbidity in children with underlying chronic disease such as asthma. Although vaccination against influenza does not reduce or shorten asthma exacerbations, the intramuscular trivalent vaccine is safe and has a beneficial effect on the quality of life of children with asthma.
许多健康组织鼓励哮喘患儿的家长为其孩子接种季节性流感病毒疫苗。流感疫苗是否能有效预防哮喘恶化?目前的疫苗对哮喘患儿进行给药是否安全?
流感病毒感染可使患有潜在慢性疾病(如哮喘)的儿童发生严重呼吸道疾病。尽管流感疫苗接种不能减少或缩短哮喘恶化,但肌肉内接种三价疫苗是安全的,并且对哮喘患儿的生活质量有有益影响。
