Preventing Severe RSV Disease in Infants
Tuesday, June 30th, from 12:00-12:30 CT
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) remains a leading cause of hospitalization among infants. RSV immunization recommendations are complex due to:
- Seasonality of the disease
- Need to immunize specific groups of young children within a limited timeframe
- Availability of two prevention strategies—one for pregnant women (maternal RSV vaccination) and the other for young children (administration of preventive monoclonal antibodies).
Learning Objectives:
-
Following this activity, participants will be able to:
- Summarize the importance of infant RSV immunization in 1-3 sentences
- Design a 10-minute in-service for clinicians regarding common technical errors (e.g., giving RSV mAb after maternal vaccination)
- Appraise online resources that answer frequently asked questions from parents and clinicians
Reducing Vaccination Pain & Anxiety in Children
Tuesday, June 30th, from 12:30-1:00 CT
Vaccination is one of the most effective ways to protect children from serious illness, yet pain and anxiety associated with needles can create distress for children and families and contribute to vaccine hesitancy over time. Because childhood vaccination experiences can influence attitudes toward immunization well into adulthood, creating positive experiences early can help reduce needle fear and support lifelong vaccine acceptance.
Learning Objectives:
-
Regarding managing pain and anxiety for children undergoing vaccination, participants will be able to:
- Summarize the importance of this topic in 1-3 sentences
- Design a 10-minute in-service for other clinicians regarding interventions that are evidence-based and feasible to implement in their setting
- Appraise online resources to guide parents and clinicians who want to improve the child’s vaccination experience
