Вакцинация пациентов с ювенильным идиопатическим артритом против пневмококка: обзор международного опыта

This review summarizes the international experience of pneumococcal immunization of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). The high efficiency and safety of pneumococcal vaccines in children with JIA is shown. Numerous studies have demonstrated an adequate immune response after vaccination even during therapy with immunosuppressive and genetically engineered biological agents drugs. Prevention of the pneumococcal infection helps avoid the development of pneumonia in patients with JIA.
