破傷風(Tetanus)是一種致命性細菌感染,疫苗效力會隨時間衰減。根據目前的醫療標準,成人應每 10 年接受一次追加劑量(Booster),以維持對破傷風毒素的免疫力。雖然在嚴重受傷時,若距離上次接種超過 5 年可能會提前施打,但常規預防建議仍以 10 年為準。這項知識對護理師在進行健康促進衛教時非常重要。
Adults should receive a tetanus booster every 10 years to maintain immunity, as vaccine efficacy wanes over time, although earlier administration may be indicated for severe wounds if the last dose was more than five years ago.
