Abstract
In our study, hospital staff and the healthy people scanned for anti-HBc total for immunization were re-evaluated in order to define the rates of the exposure to hepatitis B virus (HBV). Of the 1729 individuals scanned totally, 986 were hospital staff. Remainders were 743 healthy people. Mean age of the hospital group was 27.2 (25-40) and that of the people group was 24.3 (11-40). Anti-HBc total tests were studied by using Enzyme Immunoassay kits (Wellcozyme, Murex Biotech Limited, UK and Biokit, S.A. Barcelona, Spain). The rate of the exposure to HBV (anti-HBc total positivity) was detected as 41.68% in the hospital group. In the people group, these rates were found as 1.75% in 11 age group, 3.28% in 12 age group, 10.76% in 17 age group, 12.42% in 18 age group, 22.58% in 20 age group and 25.33% in 25-40 age group. According to these results, the rate of exposure to HBV might be said to increase by age and the rate (41.68%) of the hospital group is higher than that (25.33%) of the same age group of the people group.
Özet
Çalışmamızda, immünizasyon amacıyla anti-HBc total yönünden taranan hastane personeli ve sağlıklılarda, hepatit B virüsü (HBV) ile karşılaşma oranları değerlendirildi. Taranan toplam 1729 kişiden 986'sı hastane personeliydi. Arta kalan 743 kişi ise sağlıklılardı. Hastane grubunun yaş ortalaması 27.2 (25-40), halk grubunun ise 24.3 (11-40) idi. Anti-HBc total testleri Enzyme Immunoassay yöntemi ile (Wellcozyme, Murex Biotech Limited, UK ve Biokit, S.A.,Barcelona, Spain) çalışıldı. Hastane grubunda HBV ile karşılaşma oranı (Anti-HBc total pozitifliliği) %41.68 olarak saptandı. Halk grubundaki bu oranlar; 11 yaş grubunda %1.75, 12 yaş grubunda %3.28, 17 yaş grubunda %10.76, 18 yaş grubunda %12.42, 20 yaş grubunda %22.58, 25-40 yaş grubunda ise %25.33 olarak belirlendi. Bu sonuçlara dayanarak, HBV ile karşılaşma oranının yaş ile arttığı ve hastane grubunda diğer gruba göre daha yüksek olduğu söylenebilir.
