dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study is to compare the seropositivity of HBV, HCV and HIV in health care workers of Mustafa Kemal University Hospital with the people admitted to hospital. In the study 230 health care workers and 499 controls who admitted to the hospital with several complaints, totally 729 people were included between November 2009 and January 2010. hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), Hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs), HCV antibody (anti-HCV) and HIV antigen and antibody (HIV Ag/Ab) were investigated using electrochemiluminescent immunological method (Elecsys 2010, Roche, Japan) in blood samples obtained from subjects. The seropositivity of HBsAg was found 0.4%, in health care workers while it was found as 5.8% in controls, and the seropositivity of anti-HBs was found 57.8% in health care workers while it was found 37.5 % in controls (p=0.001 and p=0.001). The seropositivity of anti-HCV was found 0.4% in health care workers and 2.6% in patients (p=0.001). The positivity of HIV Ag/Ab was not observed in both groups. The higher seropositivity of HBsAg and Anti-HCV in controls than health care workers showed that infections can be transmitted via blood and body fuids of patients. Higher surface antibody rates in health care workers might be an indicator of success of immunization against hepatitis B. The health care workers should accept all blood and body fuid of patients as contaminated and take necessary preventive measure. © 2010 OMÜ Tüm Haklari Saklidir.en_US
