Primary Outcome(s)
|
Qualitative factors which might influence campaign uptake in The Gambia and comparable sub-Saharan African settings
[Time Frame: 1 week following vaccination campaign]
|
Number of ID fIPV doses delivered using each of the three methods in the course of a defined campaign day by one vaccination team
[Time Frame: Collected on day 1, 2 or 3 of the vaccination campaign]
|
Qualitative measures of administration method utility
[Time Frame: Collected on day 1, 2 or 3 of the vaccination campaign]
|
Storage volumes of equipment required for ID fIPV delivery and subsequent bio-waste disposal including any differences the equipment required to safely deliver such vaccinations in a campaign
[Time Frame: Collected on day 1, 2 or 3 of the vaccination campaign]
|
Changes in the time taken to deliver the ID fIPV and in the immune responses generated over the course of a 3 day campaign
[Time Frame: Over 3 days of the campaign]
|
Semi-quantitative measure of distress in infants and children associated with ID fIPV administration
[Time Frame: Collected on day 1, 2 or 3 of the vaccination campaign]
|
Serious adverse events (SAE) and adverse events (AE) following ID fIPV administration
[Time Frame: Within 4 weeks of vaccination]
|
Changes in the vaccine vial monitors (VVM) and also temperature deviations identified using a continuous temperature data logger associated with a campaign using each of the three administration methods
[Time Frame: Over 3 days of the campaign]
|
Number of ID fIPV doses deliverable per IPV vial using each of the three administration methods (to identify any wastage associated with syringe/device filling)
[Time Frame: Collected on day 1, 2 or 3 of the vaccination campaign]
|
Immune response to ID fIPV (poliovirus neutralization assays)
[Time Frame: Serum sample taken at baseline (pre-vaccination) and 4 weeks following vaccination]
|
Local and systemic reactogenicity collected according to standard severity score (0 - 4) system.
[Time Frame: Day 3 following vaccination]
|
Total time taken to deliver ID fIPV using each of the three methods of administration
[Time Frame: Collected on day 1, 2 or 3 of the vaccination campaign]
