Vaccines in Rheumatic Diseases

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Infections and the Rheumatic Diseases

Abstract

Vaccination is one of the most important public health strategies to prevent infectious diseases, reduce their severity, or prevent the complications thereof, thus decreasing morbidity and mortality in vulnerable groups such as patients with autoimmune inflammatory rheumatic diseases (AIRD).

Patients with AIRD entertain an increased risk of acquiring infections, as well as an increase in the morbidity and mortality associated with these infections, by immunosuppression due to their underlying condition, their comorbidities, and the immunosuppressive treatment. In addition to this, the immunomodulatory medications can modify the effectiveness of vaccines; therefore, it is important that the rheumatologist not only understand the efficacy and safety of each vaccine but also the appropriate time for their prescription.

This chapter focuses on the indications, contraindications, and efficacy of the vaccines included in the adult vaccination schedules of patients with AIRD, as well as special considerations such as schemes for patients traveling abroad.
