Description

Definition

For children born in the 3 to 5 years before the survey, VACDTAPIPVHIB3 indicates whether the child has received the third in a series of DTaP-IPV-Hib vaccinations against diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio (inactivated), and Haemophilus influenzae type b. This combined set of 5 vaccines may be labeled as a pentavalent vaccination, but it should not be confused with VACPENTA3 (H53), which vaccinates against diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B, and Haemophilus influenzae type b

The DTaP-IPV-Hib vaccination primary series usually consists of 3 administrations, and the complementary variables VACDTAPIPVHIB1 and VACDTAPIPVHIB2 report the first and second administrations, respectively.

VACDTAPIPVHIB3 uses composite coding, with a third digit of 2 indicating the child has been vaccinated and the third digit indicating the source of information (a dated entry on the vaccination card, an undated mark on the vaccination card, or the mother's report).
