CVP-Q01 Possible Contraindication to COVID vaccine

This search contains all those patients who are likely to be contraindicated to receiving the COVID vaccine. The criteria are those who have a coded history of anaphylaxis or adverse reaction to a vaccine, adverse reaction to the COVID vaccine, any issue ever of an adrenaline auto injector, and currently pregnant.


Patients appearing in this list should be clinically reviewed as soon as possible to determine whether or not they are suitable to receive the vaccine. They will also be flagged when using the "Eligible for COVID booster" protocol within the OneTemplate Administration Eligibility Checker,


We have been cautious with the history of adverse reaction to a vaccine by including all potential codes and the search is more comprehensive than outlined in the green book, which states that the vaccine should not be given to patients who have had a… ”confirmed anaphylactic reaction to any components of the COVID-19 vaccine”.


Anybody who has been clinically reviewed and determined to have a contraindication to the COVID vaccine needs to be coded with SARS-CoV-2 immunisation course contraindicated (1324761000000100).
