VARI-IMM: Comparison of Serological Test s for the Virus Chicken Pox Virus (VZV) and Correlation With the Patient's Memory of the Infection or Vaccination
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Comparison of the sensibility and specificity of 3 different serological tests and evaluation of chicken pox immunity in pregnant women.
Secondary goals :
-
Correlation memory / Immunity;
-
Prevalence of VZV immunity in pregnant women;
-
Evaluation of cellular and humoral immunity in cases with discrepancy between tests or between test and memory;
-
Evaluation of acceptability of vaccination in the post partum period in non immune patients.
Methods Not randomized prospective study,
Number of patients : 400 Duration : 36 months Inclusion criteria : pregnant women >18years old, agree to participate (written consent) Exclusion criteria: auto immune disease, HIV +, grafted patients

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Rate sensitivity and specificity in negative and dubious zone for the assessment of the serology of anti VZV immunity [35 weeks]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- frequency of immunity detecting depending on whether the patient remember having varicella, have been in contact with next of kin with varicella or been vaccinated against varicella or not [up to 35 weeks]
- Percentage of women accepting the vaccination in case of negative history [day during the first visit]
