  • Title: AABB-CAP survey data on hepatitis--incidence, surveillance, and prevention.
    Author: Polesky HF, Hanson M.
    Journal: Am J Clin Pathol; 1980 Oct; 74(4 Suppl):565-8. PubMed ID: 7435449.
    Abstract:
    The number of HBsAg-positive blood donors detected by routine hepatitis screening and the incidence of transfusion-associated hepatitis reported by participants in the AABB-CAP Viral Hepatitis Proficiency Survey are comparable to data reported from similar sources. Reports on hepatitis surveillance in health care personnnel suggest a higher risk of hepatitis associated with increased handling of tissue and body fluids.
