Vaccine Information Statements (VISs)

What are VISs? CDC-developed Standardized Mandatory

Page 9: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

Required by federal law: Most current VIS

Record date the VIS was given

Record publication date of VIS

Are VISs "informed consent" forms? No – there is no Federal or State requirement for an

informed consent form.

Must the patient or parent/guardian physically take away a copy of each VIS, or can we simply let them read a copy?

Ideally the person getting the shot, or their representative, should actually take each VIS home.

Patients may choose not to take the VIS, but the provider should offer them the opportunity to do so.

Does the Immunization Branch still laminate or provide VISs? No

Where can I get VISs in other languages? Immunization Action Coalition’s (IAC) website

HELP!HELP! “A community health center in “A community health center in our area inadvertently gave a 5-year-old our area inadvertently gave a 5-year-old a dose of Tdap, instead of a DTaP. What a dose of Tdap, instead of a DTaP. What is their next best step to take under this is their next best step to take under this circumstance? circumstance? 

HELP!HELP! “Someone in our clinic gave a “Someone in our clinic gave a 50-year-old DTaP instead of Tdap. How 50-year-old DTaP instead of Tdap. How should this be handled?should this be handled?””

Page 21: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

What to do About DTaP and Tdap Errors

DTaP/Tdap Error Action Needed

DTaP given to person ≥7yrs Count dose as valid

Tdap given to child <7yrs asDTaP #1, 2, or 3

Do not count dose; give DTaP now

Tdap given to child <7yrs asDTaP #4 or 5

Count dose as valid

Tdap given to child 7-9 yrs Count dose as valid

Another Source of Confusion: Varicella-Containing Vaccines

Varivax (chickenpox)(12 mos of age and older)

Zostavax (shingles)(60 yrs of age and older)

Page 23: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

HELP! “One of the nurses gave a 1-year-old Zostavax vaccine.  She knew it was not Varivax, but the physician told her it was ‘basically the same thing’ and to give it. I know this was a HUGE medication error. Does the dose count?”

ANSWER: Yes, this is a serious vaccine administration error. The dose should be counted as valid.

Page 24: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

HELP!HELP! “A 60-year-old patient was given “A 60-year-old patient was given varicella instead of zoster vaccine. Does the varicella instead of zoster vaccine. Does the patient still need zoster vaccine? If so, how patient still need zoster vaccine? If so, how long an interval should we wait after varicella long an interval should we wait after varicella vaccine before the zoster vaccine?”vaccine before the zoster vaccine?”

ANSWER:ANSWER: The dose is not valid and the patient should be The dose is not valid and the patient should be given a dose of zoster vaccine during the same visit.given a dose of zoster vaccine during the same visit. If the error is not immediately detected, a dose of If the error is not immediately detected, a dose of zoster vaccine should be administered as soon as zoster vaccine should be administered as soon as feasible but not within 28 days of the varicella vaccine feasible but not within 28 days of the varicella vaccine dose to prevent potential interference of 2 doses of dose to prevent potential interference of 2 doses of live attenuated virus. live attenuated virus.

Diluents are NOT Interchangeable

Wrong diluent is inadvertently used, the immunization may need to be repeated.

The diluent for MMR, MMRV, Varicella, and Zoster are the same

Page 26: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

HELP! “One of the nursing staff reconstituted ActHib with the diluent from MMR instead. Does it need to be repeated or will it be okay?”

ANSWER: If the wrong diluent is mistakenly used, the vaccination needs to be repeated.

Page 27: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

Giving the Wrong Vaccine will Rarely Cause a Serious Complication, but…

Extra dose may lead to more vigorous local reaction

Patient may be left unprotected against disease

Additional cost for wrong dose

Inconvenience to patient or parent

May cause loss of confidence in provider or a dissatisfied parent

HELP! “If an adult patient got a child’s dose of hepatitis B vaccine, should he be given an adult dose? If so, how soon?”

ANSWER: If you give less than a full age-appropriate dose of any vaccine, the dose is invalid. You should revaccinate the person with the appropriate dose as soon as feasible.

Administrative Error: Combining Vaccines into one Syringe that Shouldn’t be Together

Two different vaccines should NEVER be combined in the same syringe unless FDA licensed for use in this way

Administration Error:Using Expired Vaccine

Page 31: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

ANSWER: The dose should be repeated.

HELP!HELP! “ “A physician just called and gave a child a dose of expired vaccine. I am assuming the dose should be re-administered. Please advise.”

Page 32: Part II: Vaccine Administration. Objectives  Participants will gain knowledge and enhance skills of current immunization issues by: Identifying common.

HELP! “One of our nurses accidentally gave Zostavax IM instead of SC. Can you tell me what we need to do?”

ANSWER: CDC says vaccines given by the wrong route can be counted as valid with two exceptions -- HepB or rabies vaccine -- if not given IM should be repeated.
