Who is this surgery for?
- Routine immunization for adolescents and young adults as per national guidelines (typically ages 9-26, and sometimes older).
- Catch-up vaccination for individuals who missed the recommended schedule.
- Management and counseling for patients with a known history of HPV infection or abnormal cervical screening results.
- Pre-vaccination consultation for patients with questions about efficacy, side effects, or eligibility.
- Health maintenance visits where discussing cancer prevention strategies is appropriate.
How to prepare
- Review of patient's medical history, including allergies (especially to vaccine components) and current medications.
- Discussion of the vaccine schedule (2 or 3 doses depending on age at initiation) and what to expect.
- No specific fasting or physical preparation is required for the vaccination itself.
- For related screenings (like Pap smears), patients may be advised to avoid intercourse, douches, or vaginal medications for 24-48 hours prior.
- Wearing loose, comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the upper arm (typical injection site) is recommended.
Risks & possible complications
- Vaccine-related: Mild side effects like pain, redness, or swelling at the injection site, fever, headache, or fatigue.
- Allergic Reactions: Rare severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) to vaccine components.
- Syncope: Fainting can occur, especially in adolescents, after any injection.
- No treatment for existing infection: The vaccine prevents new infections but does not treat existing HPV infections or related diseases.
- Psychological Distress: Anxiety or stress related to diagnosis of HPV infection or abnormal screening results.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Immediate post-vaccination: Observation for 15-30 minutes to monitor for any immediate adverse reactions.
- Manage mild side effects with rest, hydration, and over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen if needed.
- Use a cool compress on the injection site to reduce soreness and swelling.
- No activity restrictions; patients can resume normal daily activities immediately.
- Schedule follow-up doses as per the recommended timeline (0, 1-2, and 6 months schedule for the 3-dose series).
- Continue with routine health screenings (e.g., Pap smears) as advised, as vaccination does not replace regular cervical cancer screening.
-
Typical hospital stay:
0 days (outpatient procedure)
-
Expected recovery time:
1-2 days (for minor vaccine side effects)
