About this education

The Respiratory Syncytial Virus Maternal and Infant Protection Program (RSV-MIPP) has been rolled out across Australia from February 2025 to reduce the incidence of serious illness and hospitalisation due to RSV in infancy. GPs will be at the forefront of educating women and delivering maternal immunisation against RSV with Abrysvo® to ‘cocoon’ the developing baby.

GPs will also be largely responsible for arranging ‘catch up’ nirsevimab (a monoclonal antibody Beyfortus™) for infants under 2 years at high risk or whose mothers either missed out on immunisation or were immunised within two weeks of delivery. While maternal immunisation is covered under the NIP, nirsevimab is state funded so all states differ in their approach to the rollout.

Participants will learn how to determine safe and effective maternal imminisation against RSV as well as be able to describe the eligibility, dosage and indications for nirsevimab administration applicable to where they work in Australia.

By the end of this activity, you will be able to:

1

Describe RSV immunisation of pregnant women under the NIP to best cocoon their baby against RSV once born.

2

List the indications for nirsevimab in infants born from the advent of the RSV-MIPP onwards across Australia

3

List the indications for catch-up nirsevimab in infants born before advent of RSV-MIPP and approaching their first RSV season across Australia.

4

List the indications for catch-up nirsevimab in infants born before advent of RSV-MIPP and approaching their second RSV season across Australia.

5

Determine correct dose of nirsevimab for eligible infants as above.

Describe how practice systems can aid in identifying and recalling pregnant women for RSV immunization and eligible infants as above for nirsevimab.

6

Determine the resources and correct information for the RSV-MIPP according to the state you work in.

This was an excellent outline of dyslipidaemia management by both presenters. The best on the subject that I have been to in the last 2 years. Clear, concise and useful.
