Tetanus vaccination: Medical technology

The dose of tetanus vaccine before the age of 18 months is as follows. It is first necessary to perform subcutaneous or intramuscular injection and a second one month later, a third injection one month later, a recall two years after the third injection and finally, every five years, a new injection, and this into adulthood.
If one wishes to make a preventive vaccination in adults has been inadequately immunized or inadequately immunized should be performed two subcutaneous injections or intramuscular injections at monthly intervals followed by a booster 6 to 12 months after the second injection.
Every 10 years there is a need for subsequent boosters.
If risk of tetanus is also a need for later recall.
For a wound that is suspicious to say tetanigenic likely to become, what to do is this.

    If an individual has been vaccinated and has had all its regular reminders, it is not necessary to conduct supplemental immunization.
    If an individual has been vaccinated and had a call from 5 to 10 years, just before it is then necessary to perform a simple reminder.
    If an individual has been vaccinated once but did not recall its successive it is necessary to make a booster injection associated with immunoglobulin (antibodies) against tetanus (TT) but at a different place the body.
    Of course if a subject has never been vaccinated it is necessary to administer tetanus immunoglobulin and tetanus vaccination started quickly.
Adverse effects of tetanus vaccine are (not exhaustive):

    Nodules (lumps more or less large) where the vaccine is injected
    Hyperthermia (mild fever)
    Sometimes the patient has some awareness (more or less severe reactions) to the vaccine mainly when reminders are too frequent.
