Pharmacovigilance for Vaccines Used in Pregnancy: A Gap Analysis From Uganda

To address the specific needs of maternal vaccination, the PV system in Uganda needs improvement. A multipronged approach, including policy coherence, embracing active surveillance and leveraging existing birth outcome surveillance and electronic medical records, is essential. Harnessing healthcare provider knowledge and advisory committee capacity in causality assessment is also necessary. The study findings can inform priority interventions to enhance PV for existing and new maternal vaccines.

Abstract

To address the specific needs of maternal vaccination, the PV system in Uganda needs improvement. A multipronged approach, including policy coherence, embracing active surveillance and leveraging existing birth outcome surveillance and electronic medical records, is essential. Harnessing healthcare provider knowledge and advisory committee capacity in causality assessment is also necessary. The study findings can inform priority interventions to enhance PV for existing and new maternal vaccines.
