Td

Right now we screen for Td in triage if there is an open cut or burn. If they have not had Td in the past 5 years we re-vaccinate. If the patient is male we give Adacel if no documented TdaP was given previously. If female and we have a negative preg test we give Adacel, otherwise we give Td. These policies only apply to patients > 18yo.
