Scottish data to reveal if RSV shot shields newborns
NCT ID NCT07235397
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at health records of babies born in Scotland to see if those whose mothers received the RSV vaccine (ABRYSVO) during pregnancy have fewer hospital visits for RSV. No new participants are enrolled; researchers will analyze existing data. The goal is to understand how well the vaccine works in real-world conditions.

Who is studied
This will be a whole population birth cohort study of all live-born infants born in Scotland during the study period. In Scotland, all infants are assigned a unique identifier, the Community Health Index (CHI) at birth. CHI is a common identifier across all National Health Service (NHS) healthcare encounters and allows linkage of all healthcare data to statutory datasets such as death records. The patient population will include all live-born infants born in Scotland over an 18-month accrual period, from 1st September 2024 - 28th February 2026 (or end of RSV season) and their mothers (approximately 69,000 mother-infant pairs). Selection criteria for the population were based on the time period of the RSV season in Scotland and the earliest gestational age eligible for ABRYSVO vaccination, per the MHRA. All infants will be followed for 12 months after birth; thus, the last outcome assessment will be approximately 28th February 2027.
