The investigator considered that there was no reasonable possibility that the febrile seizure and gastroenteritis may have been caused by Bexsero vs Placebo, Rotarix lyophilized formulation, DTPa-HBV-IPV, Hiberix, M-M-R II, Varivax and Prevnar 13.  The company considered that there was no reasonable possibility that the febrile seizure and gastroenteritis may have been caused by Bexsero vs Placebo, Rotarix lyophilized formulation, DTPa-HBV-IPV, Hiberix, M-M-R II, Varivax and Prevnar 13.

Subject returned to the ER (emergency room)approximately 15 hours later after another febrile seizure.  It was deemed he would be admitted for observation and further tests.  UA and blood tests were ordered, as well as urine and blood cultures. No further seizures took place through the night.

Upon internal review the case was updated on 16-Jan-2025 Suspect vaccine coding updated.; Sender's Comments: A case of gastroenteritis and febrile convulsion, 142 days after receiving Bexsero vs Placebo (4th dose) , M-M-R II (1st dose)  Prevnar (4th dose) and Varivax (1st dose), 326 days after receiving DTPa-HBV-IPV (3rd dose) and Hiberix (3rd dose) and 401 days after receiving Rotarix (2nd dose) in a 17-month-old male subject. Report is inconsistent with causal relation to the vaccine product, considering implausible time to onset and alternate etiology (gastroenteritis) for the event febrile convulsion.
