New and emerging risks for invasive aspergillosis (IA) bring the need for contemporary analyses of the epidemiology and outcomes of IA, in order to improve clinical practice.
Staining after silver diamine fluoride (SDF) treatment limits treatment acceptability but is also used as a clinical indicator of lesion stability. Potassium iodide (KI) has been postulated to modify SDF staining. Understanding the natural history and resultant shade of SDF/KI-treated lesions will inform clinical decision-making. This study describes the change in colour of carious lesions in primary teeth treated with SDF and KI.
Childhood infection might be associated with adverse child development and neurocognitive outcomes, but the results have been inconsistent.
At the Wesfarmers Centre, we undertake research in five key areas of infections and immunisation to assist in children's health.
Researchers from The Kids Research Institute Australia would like to understand more about respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and how we can provide the best protection for kids.
Review the hospital-based research that the Wesfamers Centre of Vaccines & Infectious Diseases conducts.
We are evaluating new vaccines for a range of diseases including influenza, pneumococcal, meningococcal and common infections such as otitis media (glue ear).
Vaccine Trials Group with Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital is conducting a trial of a vaccine against Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) in at-risk individuals.
The study aims to determine whether an RSV vaccine given to pregnant women during the third trimester can protect newborn babies from RSV infections.
Through co-design with community members, we hope to better understand the strengths and effectiveness of community-driven health promotion resources.
