    Abstract Background: Maternal influenza and pertussis vaccinations have been proven safe and effective in reducing maternal and infant morbidity and mortality. Though recommended, not all pregnant women receive these important vaccines. We aimed to evaluate the vaccine coverage of maternal immunization in pregnancy for seasonal influenza and acellular pertussis and elucidate the reasons for non-vaccination among pregnant women. The secondary objective was to describe factors that affect vaccine uptake.
    Methods: A cross sectional observational study using anonymous questionnaires distributed to women in the maternity ward or pregnant women hospitalized in the high-risk ward, between Nov 2017 and June 2018, In an Israeli tertiary hospital.
    Results: Of 321 women approached, 313 were eligible, with a total of 290 women completing the questionnaire (92.6%). We found a 75.9% (95% CI 71-81) and 34.5% (95% CI 29-40) vaccination rate for pertussis and influenza vaccines, respectively. The most prominent reason for not receiving the pertussis vaccine was being under-informed (24%). Influenza vaccine was not received mainly due to concerns about vaccine efficacy (28%). Other factors influencing vaccine uptake included education, prior childbirth and vaccine recommendations made by the provider.
    Conclusion: Although maternal vaccination of pertussis and influenza is officially recommended, vaccine uptake is suboptimal. Our study suggests a central role for medical providers in diminishing the concerns about safety and efficacy, and presents novel factors influencing compliance rates, like seasonality and number of prior births.

  7. Article: The influence of the type of face mask used by healthcare providers during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on the report of pain: a cross-sectional study in a pediatric emergency department.

    Abstract Background: During 4 months of the severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic, nurses in a pediatric emergency department (ED) used surgical and clear face masks in triage. This study aimed to find out if the type of face mask influenced children's reports of pain.
    Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis of the pain scores of all patients aged 3-15 years who visited the ED during the 4-month period was performed. Multivariate regression was used to control for the potential confounders of demographics, diagnosis (medical, trauma), nurse experience, ED time of arrival, and triage acuity level. Self-reports of pain ≥1/10 and pain ≥4/10 were the dependent variables.
    Results: Overall, 3,069 children attended the ED during the study period. Triage nurses wore surgical and clear face masks in 2,337 and 732 nurse-patient encounters, respectively. The two types of face masks were used in similar proportions of nurse-patient encounters. Compared with the clear face mask, wearing a surgical face mask was associated with a lower likelihood of reporting pain ≥1/10, and a lower likelihood of reporting pain ≥4/10; [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) =0.68; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.56-0.82], and (aOR =0.71; 95% CI: 0.58-0.86), respectively.
    Conclusions: The findings suggest that the type of face mask used by the nurse influenced the report of pain. This study provides preliminary evidence that covered face masks worn by healthcare providers might have a negative impact on the child's report of pain.

    Abstract Aim: To investigate whether there are common clinical findings in bacteraemic children that were discharged from the emergency department (ED) and to follow their clinical outcome.
    Methods: A retrospective chart review of children above one-month-old with positive blood cultures obtained in Shamir Medical Center's ED between January 2011 and December 2019 was conducted.
    Results: A total of 250 cases were analysed, of which 68 discharged after first evaluation. Streptococcus pneumonia was the most commonly isolated pathogen. Compared to children that were admitted when first evaluated in the ED, discharged children had lower C-reactive protein (mean 50.5 ± 62.8 vs 121.7 ± 113.2 mg/L, p < 0.001). Dyspnoea and being ill-looking were less prevalent among the latter (6.7% versus 35.1%, p = <0.001, 3.0% versus 22.2% p < 0.001, respectively), as were presence of Kingella kingae and other Gram-negative bacteria. Of the children hospitalised in our institution, the duration of hospitalisation was significantly lower than in those admitted during the first visit (6.3 ± 4.3 vs 9.0 ± 7.4 days, p = .002). None of the discharged children were admitted to paediatric intensive care unit.
    Conclusion: Children with bacteraemia who were discharged home before knowing their positive blood cultures results had lower C-reactive protein and better outcome compared to those admitted on first evaluation in emergency department.
