The CDC and the American College of Physicians have released best practice advice on vaccinating against and screening for hepatitis B virus (HBV).
The document, published in Annals of Internal Medicine, recommends vaccinating the following at-risk adults:
-
Patients at risk from sexual exposure — e.g., people whose partners are positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), sexually active people who are not in a monogamous relationship, patients who are being seen for a possible sexually transmitted infection, and men who have sex with men
-
Those at risk from mucosal or percutaneous exposure to blood — e.g., injection drug users, healthcare workers
-
Patients with chronic liver disease, end-stage renal disease, or HIV
-
Pregnant patients who have high-risk sexual activity or drug use
-
People who travel to countries where HBV infection is endemic
Clinicians should screen the following at-risk groups for hepatitis B infection:
-
People born in countries with an HBV prevalence of 2% or above
-
Men who have sex with men
-
Injection drug users
-
Patients with HIV or end-stage renal disease
-
Household and sexual contacts of patients with HBV
-
Blood and tissue donors
-
Pregnant women
-
People with hepatitis C or those who have elevated alanine aminotransferase levels
-
Incarcerated people
-
Infants born to HBV-infected mothers
Patients who test positive for HBsAg should be provided counseling and HBV-directed care.
