Abstract
⺠LAIV is not recommended for children <24 months or those 24 through 59 months with asthma, recurrent wheezing, or immunocompromise. ⺠LAIV use in nonrecommended children was low compared with recommended populations. ⺠Among nonrecommended cohorts studied, use was greatest in those with recurrent wheezing. ⺠No excess in hospitalizations or ED visits within 42 days of vaccination was seen in nonrecommended populations. ⺠Few nonrecommended children were vaccinated with LAIV, precluding quantification of rare events.
