[Guidelines for the use of post-traumatic tetanus vaccines and passive immune preparation].

Post-traumatic tetanus is the main type of non-neonatal tetanus. To reduce the incidence and mortality rateof tetanus and guide the primary medical institutions to prevent and control tetanus after trauma, the National Immunization Planning Technical Working Group of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention has compiled this document in the reference with Position Paper by World Health Organization, and the latest research progress both at home and abroad. The guidelines focus on the basic procedures for the prevention and treatment of post-traumatic tetanus, the application of tetanus vaccines and immune preparation, and pre-exposure immunization in high-risk populations of trauma.
