Immunisation stress-related response (ISRR)

An adverse event following immunisation arising from stress about the process of immunisation (based on WHO11).

In contrast to immunisation anxiety-related reaction, ISRR covers the entire spectrum of manifestations (symptoms and signs) of a stress response rather than a single symptom, anxiety (see WHO11 ).

As for other adverse events following immunisation (AEFI), symptoms may occur during or after immunisation; however, in contrast to other AEFI, the symptoms of an ISRR may also occur immediately before immunisation (see WHO11 ).
