A, B, Cs of Viral Hepatitis
•
•
•
A
– fecal-oral spread: hygiene, drug use, men having
sex with men, travelers, day care, food
– vaccine-preventable
B
– sexually transmitted – 100x more infectious than
HIV
– blood-borne (sex, injection drug use, motherchild, and health care)
– vaccine-preventable
C
– blood borne (injection drug use primarily)
– 4-5 times more common than HIV
– NOT vaccine-preventable!

Acute Hepatitis – Clinical Symptoms
Asymptomatic > Symptomatic > Fulminant Liver
Failure > Death
Symptoms (if present) are the same, regardless of
cause (e.g., A, B, C, other viruses, toxins)
• Nausea, vomiting
• Abdominal pain
• Loss of appetite
• Fever
• Diarrhea
• Light (clay) colored stools
• Dark urine
• Jaundice (yellowing of eyes, skin)

Infectious hepatitis, epidemic hepatitis,
epidemic jaundice.
• Children are usually asymptomatic, adults symptomatic
• Onset is usually sudden with fever followed within few days
by jaundice.
• Complete recovery is the rule (no chronicity).
• The case-fatality rate among persons of all ages is
approximately 0.3%
• but is approximately 2% among persons > 40 years.
Dr. Salwa Tayel

It is worldwide
In developing countries, it occurs in endemic
and epidemic forms due to:
• Poor environmental sanitation
• Overcrowding
• Lack of personal hygiene.

1. Fecal-oral route. Close personal contact;
house hold contact,, sex contact, day
care centers.
2.Common vehicle; contaminated water
and food; raw shellfish food handlers .
3. Rarely through blood transfusion and
contaminated syringes.

Through the mouth.
• Susceptibility is general.
• Post infection immunity
probably lasts for life.

• Incubation period 28 days (range 15-50 days)
• The maximum infectivity is during the latter
half of the incubation period (2 weeks before
and 1 week after onset of jaundice).

Prevention of Hepatitis A





Vaccination
Immune globulin
Good hygiene (hand washing)
Clean water systems; avoidance of food
contamination
Food sanitation especially shell fish and
raw eaten food.
Dr. Salwa Tayel
16
Hepatitis A Prevention – Immune Globulin

Pre-exposure
–

travelers to intermediate and high
HAV-endemic regions
Post-exposure (within 14 days)
Routine
–
household and other intimate contacts
Selected situations
–
institutions (e.g., day care centers)
–
common source exposure (e.g.,
food prepared by infected food handler)
Dr. Salwa Tayel
17
Hepatitis A Vaccine

Inactivated whole virus vaccine.

Licensed for persons 1 year of age and older.

Schedule 2 doses

First dose then booster dose 6-18 months after first.

Gives protection after 4 weeks of the fist dose.

The vaccine should be administered intramuscularly.

Site: deltoid muscle.
Dr. Salwa Tayel
18
Indications of Hepatitis A Vaccine

Persons at increased risk for infection:
– travelers to intermediate and high HAV-endemic
countries
(Individuals who will travel to high-risk areas <4 weeks
after the initial dose of vaccine should also be given IG)
– MSM (Men who have sex with men)
– illegal drug users
– Persons who have clotting factor disorders
– persons with chronic liver disease

For communities with historically high rates of hepatitis A:
-routine childhood vaccination

 The presence of HBsAg indicates active infection or chronic carrier.
 Antibody to HBsAg, from either disease or vaccine, indicates immunity.

Human (cases and carriers).
Human blood and blood products can transmit
infection if not screened for HBs Ag.
Other body Fluids have the virus with varying
concentrations.

1.Parenteral: Unsafe injections and transfusions,

and toothbrushes.
2.Perinatal exposure, especially when HBs Ag
carrier mothers are also HBe Ag positive.
3.Sexual exposure.

From 45-180 days, average 60-90 days.
• 1-2 months before the onset of symptoms
• during acute clinical course
• during the chronic carrier state which may persist
for life.

Elimination of HBV Transmission
Strategy
 Prevent perinatal HBV transmission
 Routine vaccination of all infants
 Vaccination of children in high-risk
groups
 Vaccination of adolescents & all
children up through age 18
 Vaccination of adults in high-risk
groups
14/2/2011
Dr. Salwa Tayel
37
Hepatitis B Vaccine
Currently, subunit recombinant HBs Ag
• given IM in the deltoid region.
• 3 dose series, typical schedule 0, 1-2, 4-6 months - no
maximum time between doses (no need to repeat missed
doses or restart)
• Protection
• ~30-50% dose 1
• 75% - dose 2
• 96% - dose 3
• lower protection in older, immunosuppressive
illnesses (e.g., HIV, chronic liver diseases, diabetes),
obese, smokers

38
Indication of Hepatitis B Vaccination

Routine for infants.

Ages 11-15 “catch up”, and through age 18 years

Over 18 – high risk
– Occupational risk health care workers (HCWs)
– Hemodialysis patients
– All clinic clients of sexually transmitted diseases (STD)
– Multiple sex partners or prior STD
– MSM (Men having sex with men)
– IDU (injecting drug users)
– Institution for developmental disability (Staff & clients)

Prevention of perinatal HBV transmission
Prevent perinatal HBV transmission by:
• screening all pregnant women for
hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) &
• providing hepatitis B immune globulin
(HBIG) in combination with hepatitis B
vaccine to infants of HBsAg-positive
mothers
14/2/2011
Dr. Salwa Tayel
41
Immunoglobulins (HBIG):
(HBIG) is indicated in combination with the
vaccine in:
accidental needle stick injury
sure sexual exposure
perinatal exposure
In blood banks:
screening of blood donors
And avoid donors from risky group.
14/2/2011
Dr. Salwa Tayel
42
 Use of adequately sterilized syringes and needles or
preferably use disposal equipment.
 Discourage risky behaviors e.g. tattooing, drug abuse
and extramarital relations.
 Avoid transmission from persons with (e antigen),
especially medical and dental personnel who routinely
perform invasive procedures.
Health care personnel should follow the universal
precautions.

• Superinfection on top of chronic HBV
– usually develop chronic HDV infection
– high risk of severe chronic liver disease

Prevention of Hepatitis D
• HBV-HDV Coinfection
– Pre or postexposure prophylaxis to prevent HBV
infection (HBIG and/or Hepatitis B vaccine)

coughing, food or water, sharing eating utensils, or
casual contact

- Reduce or Eliminate Risks for Acquiring HCV Infection
- Preventing HCV Transmission from patients to Others
- HCV testing/ screening

Prevention of HCV transmission

Screening and testing donors of blood, organs, and tissues

Virus inactivation of plasma-derived products

Risk-reduction counseling and services
– Obtain history of high-risk drug and sex behaviors
– Provide information on minimizing risky behavior,
including referral to other services

Infection control practices

Blood and body fluid precautions

Public Health Service Guidelines for
Anti-HCV-Positive Persons
Anti-HCV-positive persons should:
• Be considered potentially infectious
• Keep cuts and skin lesions covered
• Be informed of the potential for sexual transmission
• Be informed of the potential for perinatal
transmission
– no evidence to advise against pregnancy or
breastfeeding
Anti-HCV-positive persons should not:
• Donate blood, organs, tissue, or semen
• Share household articles (e.g., toothbrushes,
razors)
