6 mar 2024 · The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence rates of hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections among hemodialysis (HD) patients as well as to identify associated risk factors.
1 sty 2020 · The efficacy of hemodialysis may be improved by using the difference flux dialysis membranes and blood flow rates by considering their difference complications. This study aimed to know the...
1 cze 2005 · HIV-infected patients requiring hemodialysis should have antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) titers checked after receiving a standard primary series of 3 hepatitis B vaccinations, and they should receive a fourth injection if these levels are <10 IU/L (B-II). Introduction

10 kwi 2024 · Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is a major public health problem. These patients are at an increased risk for end-stage kidney disease. Both hemodialysis (HD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) are the accepted modalities of treatment.
Up to 60% of dialysis patients with HBV infection develop chronic hepatitis with persistence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and infectivity. The risk of transmission of HBV infection due to blood from one patient to another is mostly because of inadequate precautions taken by the dialysis staff.
28 paź 2019 · The incidence of HBV and HCV in dialysis units has fallen over the last 3 decades although data from USA showed that the incidence of HBV infection in dialysis units had stayed stable at 1% per year in the 10 years before 2002 [4]. Most UK renal health care workers have probably never witnessed an outbreak of BBV in the renal unit.
