This study evaluated the seroprevalence of Bordetella pertussis antibodies and anti-pertussis antibody response after a single dose of reduced-antigen, combined diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis vaccine (Tdap) in pregnant Thai women. All seronegative participants received Tdap, while seropositive participants were equally randomized into 2 groups. Half of seropositive participants received Tdap and the other half received tetanus-diphtheria (Td) as standard protocol.
