Therefore, prevention measures against other infectious diseases among this vulnerable group have gained increased attention. Indeed, the EACS guidelines recommend vaccinations against HAV, HBV, HPV, Influenza, <jats:italic>Neisseria meningitidis<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Streptococcus pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> and VZV in HIV-infected adults.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>All PLWH under cART attending our ID outpatient clinic between April to June 2018, were assessed during consultation for vaccination status regarding pneumococcus, Hepatitis A and B, influenza, varicella, meningococcus and HPV using a pre-defined questionnaire, vaccination certificates and medical records. In addition, the cohort database was screened for Hepatitis A and B serology and HIV surrogate markers.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A total of 305 PLWH (82.3% male, 17.7% female) was included, median age was 48\u00a0years (IQR 47\u201351). Median CD4\u2009+\u2009T cell count was 543 (IQR 304\u2013770), and for 297 (97.4%) PLWH CD4\u2009+\u2009T cell count was\u2009\u2265\u2009200\/ul. The viral load was undetectable (&lt;\u200940 copies\/ml) in 289 (94.8%) cases. Highest vaccination rates were observed for HAV (87.4%), <jats:italic>Streptococcus pneumoniae<\/jats:italic> (77.4%) and Influenza (76.5%). 64.3% PLWH got vaccinated against HBV, whereas VZV vaccination only played a minor role, in the context of the high rate of cleared infections (99.0%). Lowest vaccination rates were detected for HPV (0%) and <jats:italic>Neisseria meningitidis<\/jats:italic> (3.0%).<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Our data suggest that vaccination rates among PLWH are higher compared to the general German population. Implementation of EACS guidelines into daily routine though is not fully executed and the need for improving vaccination rates has to be emphasized. Centrally organized vaccination registers as well as electronic medical records could be helpful tools to detect a lack of vaccination coverage and send digital vaccination reminders particularly among risk groups.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s15010-022-01827-6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,6]],"date-time":"2022-05-06T13:04:41Z","timestamp":1651842281000},"page":"1491-1497","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Implementation of EACS vaccination recommendations among people living with HIV"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"50","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6585-1605","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sven","family":"Breitschwerdt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carolynne","family":"Schwarze-Zander","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ahmad","family":"Al Tayy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Julia","family":"Mutevelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jan-Christian","family":"Wasmuth","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J\u00fcrgen K.","family":"Rockstroh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christoph","family":"Boesecke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,5,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"1827_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"597","DOI":"10.1007\/s40121-019-00273-6","volume":"8","author":"C Hagemann","year":"2019","unstructured":"Hagemann C, et al.
