Brief summary

Comparative study of tolerability, reactogenicity, safety and immunogenicity Flu-M \[Inactivated Split Influenza Vaccine\] vs. the Ultrix® vaccine for the prevention of influenza in pregnant women in the 2nd-3rd trimesters of pregnancy

Detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blind, comparative, controlled trial. A design with a control group treated with Ultrix®, inactivated influenza vaccine, was chosen to obtain objective findings.Trial population: healthy women aged 18 to 35 years during the 2nd and 3rd trimesters of pregnancy. Subjects were randomized into 4 groups in a ratio of 1:1:1:1, 50 subjects per group.
