The purpose of the study is to test whether a centre-wide policy of incremental antibiotic therapy will reduce arrhythmia device infection in patients undergoing arrhythmia device procedures compared to a policy of conventional antibiotic…
To determine a suitable co-trimoxazole regimen for testing in a future larger clinical trial to determine the efficacy of antibiotic prophylaxis in patients with a temporary urinary tract catheter.
The aim of this study is to investigate the immune response to a tetravalent MenACWY-TT vaccine in 10-, 12- and 15-year old children primed with the monovalent MenC-TT conjugate vaccine at a young age and to1. determine whether the MenC-specific…
Primary:To determine trends in vaccine- and nonvaccine-serotype S. pneumoniae asymptomatic colonisation in healthy 11-month-old and 24-month-old infants who have been immunized according to the Dutch NIP with 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine…
How long does B-cell memory persist after a single conjugate MenC vaccination and which cells are involved? How is this related to the age of first vaccination? And how to define correlates of protection for immunity and memory after MenC conjugate…
