  • Title: [Preventive tetanus vaccination and recommendations for revision of the 19 October 1978 guidelines for tetanus prevention].
    Author: Thilo W, Dittmann S.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1985; 110(7):401-12. PubMed ID: 4002904.
    Abstract:
    For a long time, tetanus-toxoid has been given in relatively high quantity and relatively often in order to avoid any risk of human tetanus. It is necessary, however, to focus attention on overimmunization which includes the possibility of hypersensitivity reactions. Some recommendations gained from experiments are presented for establishing a new concept of guidelines for preventing tetanus in the GDR.
