Resumen

DOYLE SANCHEZ, María; PLAZA ALMEIDA, Josefa; MATEOS RODRIGUEZ, Fernando  y  HOYOS VAZQUEZ, María del Perpetuo Socorro. Management of immigrant children: Vaccination calendar. Rev Clin Med Fam [online]. 2009, vol.2, n.6, pp.294-299. ISSN 2386-8201.

The immigrant population in Castilla-La Mancha, Spain has multiplied in the last five years. The incorporation of immigrants has progressed very rapidly in the last few years with the greatest increase being in 2001. The immigrants often come from depressed socio-economic communities and the child population is the most vulnerable. There is a high probability that these children have not been adequately vaccinated and, therefore, are exposed to infectious agents to which the indigenous population is immune. For these children, we should perform an initial medical assessment and a review of their vaccine status in order to administer vaccines in an accelerated regimen. Thus bringing their vaccination record card up to date with the immunization calendar in our autonomous community. In order to carry out this work we have consulted guidelines on immigrant care in several autonomous communities in Spain, the American recommendations of the immunization committee and, in particular, the 2008 recommendations of the Vaccine Assessment Committee (CAV) and the Spanish Paediatric Society (AEP) have been taken into account.

Palabras clave : Immunization Coverage; Emigration and Immigration; Child.
