This is a retrospective cohort study of children included in a large medical insurance claims database.
- To evaluate the rate of FluMist administration compared to other influenza vaccine use in the following pediatric populations: • Children younger than 24 months of age • Children 24-59 months of age with a claim associated with a diagnosis of asthma • Children 24-59 months of age without a claim associated with a diagnosis of asthma, but with dispensed medication for wheezing • Children 24-59 months of age with immunosuppression - To describe, in children in the above populations who receive FluMist, the type and number of Emergency Room visits or hospitalizations associated with an insurance claim within 42 days of receiving FluMist - To explore the rationale for FluMist immunization of pediatric populations that are excluded from recommended usage by characterizing the use in these populations
