Vaccination                                                                                             Click to print page

Most children with heart disease can have all the normal vaccinations at the appropriate time.

However some children with an immune deficiency (DiGeorge syndrome or an isomerism) and those who are receiving immunosuppression - for example following transplantation require a different vaccination schedule.

Flu' vaccination is recommended for some children (older than 6 months age) with heart problems and also for those receiving aspirin therapy.
