title: [Vaccinations as a cause of children hospitalisation in Neuroinfection Department of the John Paul II Hospital in Cracow between 2002--2004].
abstract: A retrospective study was conducted among 205 children chosen from a group of 2728 children hospitalised in Neuroinfection Department of the John Paul 2nd Hospital In Cracow between 1/1/2002 and 6/30/2004. The data was taken from medical documentation from the Neuroinfection Department and Province Dispensary of Inoculation in the Hospital. Patients was divided into two groups: first one contained children from group of increased risk, patients hospitalised electively in the Dispensary to be under observation in hospital environment on day of execution of inoculation; and second one contained children sent to the Neuroinfection Department from other institutions in consequence of showed symptoms of adverse event following immunization (AEFI) Within both groups' causes of hospitalisation was determined and given types of vaccinations was qualified as the most often cause of hospitalisation. It appeared that predominantly cause of hospitalisation was misgivings about course of the inoculation process for children with neurological diseases, which had been inoculated DTaP according to plan. However the most often to cause AEFI was vaccination DTP with full-cell pertussis component.
