Özet
Objective: Hemodialysis patients are at higher risk for Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection when compared with the rest of the population. Adequate antibody response (approximately 90%) is achieved when healthy individuals are immunized with HBV vaccine; however, the response is about 50% and 70% in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. In this study, it is aimed to assess the influence of different factors and the type of renal replacement, for antibody response to double dose of recombinant HBV-vaccine in dialysis patients. Materials and methods: In this retrospective study, we included 37 patients (19 males, 18 females) who were in the schedule of hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) at the Dialysis Center of Duzce University Hospital between 2004 and 2005. The patients were administered double doses of recombinant DNA derived HBV vaccine IM for four times at 0, 1, 2, and 6 months. The patients' antibody responses were determined ated by ELISA test. Results: Six of the 37 patients (16.2%) had no response to the vaccine, while 15 patients (40.5%) had low response and 16 patients (43.2%) had complete response. There was no difference between hemodialysis patients and peritoneal dialysis patients in terms of the antibody response (p>0.05). Levels of hemoglobin, total cholesterol, triglyceride and albumin, type and duration of dialysis, and gender were not correlated with the antibody response (p>0.05). Conclusion: As a result, for dialysis patients, antibody response to the HBV-vaccine is lower than that in the healthy population and this decline in response seems to be multifactorial.
