Protection From Influenza: Determining the Impact of Prior Infection

NCT03004040 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 50

Last updated 2018-02-23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators propose a unique methodology of studying infection and vaccination history and immune responses. As most studies in infection history are conducted on mice, limitations are inherent on their applicability to humans. A longitudinal comparison study following older adults (over the age of 65) hospitalized for influenza are followed through to their hospital discharge and vaccination in the following season. This will allow for the investigation of the course of infection, as well as impact on the response to vaccination.
