<prompt> A person is brought to you after an A and on examination there is a lacerated wound in the thigh with some tissue damage. The surgery resident has cleaned and debrided the wound and prescribed antibiotics. History of the patient reveals that he has taken a complete course of tetanus toxoid with a booster dose 4 years ago. What is your line of management to prevent tetanus?Give 1 dose of tetanus toxoidGive Human tetanus hyper -immunoglobulinGive a and bTell the patient that no tetanus prophylaxis is required  <response>: Since he has completed the course of tetanus toxoid and received a booster dose within 5 years nothing more is needed. If he had taken a booster dose more than 5 years ago and less than 10 years, 1 dose TT should have been given. If his last booster dose was 10 years ago he needs both toxoid and immunoglobulin. Same is the case if he has not been vaccinated before. Note: - In case of a clean non penetrating injury with minimal tissue damage the treatment is only toxoid if no booster is received within 5 years. Ref: Park, Edition 21, Page 287
