J Pediatr Infect Dis Soc 2018; advance online publication (ahead of print)Publiekssamenvatting
This national study characterized invasive Haemophilus influenzae serotype b infections. Vaccinated (n = 41) and nonvaccinated (n = 10) cases were similar regarding presentation as meningitis (68.8% vs 90.0%; P = .25), predisposing factors (29.3% vs 20.0%; P = .76), admission to intensive care unit or death (22.0% vs 10.0%; P = 1.00), or sequelae (21.6% vs 10.0%; P = .81). Haemophilus influenzae serotype b occurred in vaccinated, healthy children with comparable disease course.PMID
