Definitive immunization guidelines for internationally adopted children are lacking. We examined whether these children had serologic evidence of protection against vaccine-preventable diseases. For children with >= 3 vaccine doses, overall protection was high for diphtheria (85%), tetanus (95%), polio (93%). hepatitis B (77%), and Hib (67%). For children >= 12 months of age with >= 1 dose of measles, mumps, or rubella vaccines, 95%, 72%, and 94% were immune. respectively. Children without immunization documentation had lower immunity. Serologic testing was useful in verifying the immunization status in internationally adopted children with and without documentation of immunizations. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
