Overview

This survey is conducted for preparing application materials for re-examination under the Korean Pharmaceutical Affairs Laws and its Enforcement Regulation; its aim is to reconfirm the clinical usefulness of VARIVAX through collecting the safety information according to the Re-examination Regulation for New Drugs.

This post-marketing survey was conducted in the usual routine practice and the investigator enrolled participants vaccinated with VARIVAX continuously after study start. The purpose of the study was to assess the occurrence of adverse events and to identify factors that may affect the safety of the vaccine under real-life, post-marketing conditions.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Percentage of Participants With One or More Adverse Events (AEs)

An adverse event is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the study vaccine, is also an adverse event. Changes resulting from normal growth and development which do not vary significantly in frequency or severity from expected levels are not to be considered adverse events. Examples of this may include, but are not limited to, teething, typical crying in infants and children, and onset of menses or menopause occurring at a physiologically appropriate time.

Time frame: Up to 42 days after vaccination

Percentage of Participants With One or More AEs by Gender
