Abstract: | The results of prolonged observations on children with frequent acute respiratory diseases (ARD), subject to immunoprophylaxis with the use of polycomponent vaccine (VP-4), prepared from the antigens of opportunistic microorganisms, are presented. The vaccine was introduced to 30 children in 3 intranasal administrations and 6-8 oral administrations. The morbidity rate of the children was registered and their clinical status was evaluated for a year after the introduction of vaccine VP-4. As revealed in these observations, the frequency of ARD cases among the immunized children decreased 3 times or more in comparison with that among the same children, registered during a year prior to the introduction of the vaccine. In addition to a decrease in the frequency of ARD cases, a decrease in their duration and in the number of antibiotic administrations, as well as in the necessity of hospitalization, were also registered. |
