In medicine, pneumococcal vaccines are "vaccines or candidate vaccines used to prevent infections with streptococcus pneumoniae."[1] These infections include pneumonia, meningitis, otitis media, and sepsis.
Indications
In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention[2][3] and the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations[4] have created recommendations for vaccination.
Vaccination of hospitalized patients
Although vaccination is viewed as purview of primary care physicians, vaccinating inpatients during hospitalizations may improve vaccination rates[5]; however, inpatient vaccination may be difficult to implement[6]. Paradoxically, inpatient strategies may be less successful in hospitals that have a high volume of pneumonia cases.[7]
