Abstract:
Most children patients with chronic kidney disease show immune disorders and defects of immune functionality.There are significant increases in various pathogen infections,especially streptococcus pneumonia,hepatitis B virus,and influenza virus.Streptococcus pneumonia is the most common cause of bacterial pneumonia and otitis media worldwide,and the main pathogens of bacterial meningitis as well.Children treated by hemodialysis are in high risk circumstance susceptible to hepatitis B virus.Influenza is a highly contagious disease with extremely strong dissemination capability.The organizations of U.S.Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP),and Kidney Disease:Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) specifically recommends 3 vaccines,namely,hepatitis B virus,influenza virus (inactivated),and pneumococcal vaccine for patients with chronic kidney disease and chronic dialysis.Vaccination is a specific preventive and an effective protective measure for patients of chronic kidney disease and undergoing dialysis.
