dc.description.abstractObjective: Physicians, allied health staff (anaesthesia technicians and nurses) and medical ward staff in operating rooms and in the clinics may often contact with blood or body fluids. These fluids and contaminated instruments are important causes of infection transmission including hepatitis B, hepatitis C or HIV. The objective of this study was to determine the immunization status and seroprevelance of Abant Izzet Baysal University Medical School Hospital operation room personnel and medical ward staff for Hepatitis B virus (HBV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In addition to this, we aimed to discuss vaccination and measures that can be taken with the aid of current literature. Method: After obtaining informed consent from 122 operating room personnel and service staff, blood samples were collected. A self-assessment questionnaire was used to obtain the informations including demographic information, duration of clinical practice, previously diagnosed hepatitis infection and the immunization status. Serum samples were tested for hepatitis B surface antigen, surface antibody (anti-HBs), core antibody, anti-HCV, and anti-HIV using the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay method. For statistical analysis, Chi-square tests and Phi- Cramer's V, Contingency Coefficient, Goodman and Kruskal tau and Uncertainly Coefficient tests were used. P values <0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: 43 women (35.2%) and 79 men (64.8%) participated in a total of 122 volunteers in this study. Sixty-two volunteers were operating room personnel and sixty participants were medical ward staff. A total of 30 (24.6%) physicians, 60 (49.2%) allied health staff (anaesthesia technicians and nurses) and 32 (26.2%) medical ward staff were included in the study. One hundred and eight participants have been working less than 5 years (88.5%), 12 participants have been working less than 10 years (9.8%) and 2 participants have been working more than 10 years (1.6%). Hepatitis markers of operating room personnel and medical ward staff were not statistically different. Eight of 120 participants without a history of hepatitis, had positive anti-HBc (6.6%). All were negative for anti-HCV and anti-HIV. Conclusion: This study shows once again that the importance of laboratory examinations made by routine intervals and standard precautions taken in the hospital for health care workers at risk.en_US
