Study design details

Main study objective

To assess the presence or absence of issues and concerns related to safety of Shingrix under practical use conditions.

Outcomes

Occurrence of Solicited adverse events and Unsolicited adverse events

Data analysis plan

Analytical methods include:
- Safety: calculate incidence proportion of vaccine related adverse reaction.
- Consideration of covariates: consideration for covariates which may relate to safety (incidence proportion of vaccine related adverse reaction) by calculation odds ratio and 95% confidence interval, figure out forest-plot if necessary.
