全球百日咳倡议(GPI)成立于2001年,旨在评估全球百日咳问题的严重程度,并评估和优先考虑百日咳控制战略。通过讨论和辩论促进数据、知识和经验的交流,2002年提出了以下建议:所有国家都应考虑扩大现有的疫苗接种战略,包括为学龄前儿童增加百日咳加强剂量(4-6岁),青少年,以及那些具有将百日咳杆菌感染传播给易受感染婴儿的最高风险的特定成人。全球免疫倡议于2005年再次举行会议,重申其先前关于普及青少年免疫的建议。此外,全球免疫倡议建议在经济上可行的国家实施茧战略(对家庭成员和新生儿密切接触者进行免疫接种),并鼓励努力实现百日咳临床定义和诊断的全球标准化。普及成人疫苗接种是最终消除百日咳的一个合乎逻辑的目标,但可行性问题仍然是实施的障碍。(c)2006爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The Global Pertussis Initiative (GPI) was established in 2001 to assess the global extent of the ongoing problem of pertussis and to evaluate and prioritize pertussis control strategies. Exchange of data, knowledge, and experience, facilitated by discussion and debate, resulted in the formulation, in 2002, of the following recommendation: all countries should consider expanding existing vaccination strategies to include adding pertussis booster doses to pre-school children (4-6 years old), to adolescents, and to those specific adults that have the highest risk of transmitting Bordetella pertussis infection to vulnerable infants. The GPI met again in 2005, where it reinforced its previous recommendation for universal adolescent immunization. Additionally, the GPI recommended implementation of the cocoon strategy (immunization of family members and close contacts of the newborn) in countries where it is economically feasible, and encouraged efforts toward global standardization of pertussis disease clinical definitions and diagnostics. Universal adult vaccination is a logical goal for the ultimate elimination of pertussis disease, but feasibility issues remain obstacles to implementation. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
