Influence of supplementary immunization activities for adults dynamics of chronic disease HBV-infection and its outcomes

Abstract

Purpose : to evaluate the effect of additional vaccination of adult HBV- infection years 2007–2010 on the incidence of chronic hepatitis B and its outcomes on the example of the Kirov region. Materials and Methods: the evaluation of epidemiological features process in patients with chronic HBV infection in adults, depending on the vaccination carried out on the basis of official data Rospotrebnadzora in Russia and Kirov region on incidence of infectious disease for the period 1999–2012. Diagnosis of chronic hepatitis B was based on clinical and biochemical, instrumental, virological data. Structure outcomes of chronic hepatitis B was studied in 295 patients aged 18–75 years who were hospitalized in the department of viral hepatitis Kirov infectious diseases hospital in 2006–2010. Results: In the Kirov region tended to decrease the incidence of chronic hepatitis B in adults. Additional adult vaccination against hepatitis B has not led to the expected significant decrease of the number of patients with chronic forms. One reason for this is the low (20,3–64%) of the adult population immunization coverage. Chronic HBV- monoinfected was observed in 17.1% , cirrhosis in the outcome of chronic hepatitis B in 5,4% of cases, in hospital mortality from complications of HBV- cirrhosis was 0,7%. Association virus C and D have increased the total cohort, compared to a mono- infection by 3,8% and 0,5% lethality. Conclusion: Additional adult vaccination against hepatitis B in the area has led to a slight decrease in the overall incidence of chronic hepatitis B, but has not reduced the incidence of adverse events – cirrhosis and liver- mediated lethality.
