Abstract

CHRONIC HEMODIALYSIS patients are highly susceptible to HEPATITIS B, where different factors associate with this problem. Determining these factors and employing preventive care could be helpful. This study has been conducted with the aim of determining the effective factors in CHRONIC HEMODIALYSIS patients in Tehran during the academic year 2000. This descriptive study has performed through an observation-interview technique on 56 HEPATITIS B infected hemodialysis patients. Among the patients, 82% were male and the remaining 18% were female. Mean age was 44.5.68% have settled in urban areas and 32% in rural areas. Dialysis duration of less than one year has recorded in 19.5%, where the duration of 1-3 years and 13-15 years has recorded in 28.6% and 5.5%, respectively. Positive history of blood transfusion, dental procedure and surgical operation has reported in 75%, 66%, and 52% of the candidates, respectively. 40% of the patients were HBs Ag positive during the dialysis course and none of the patients have received vaccination. 12.5% coinfection with hepatitis C, 80.35% use of separate room, 100% use of separate equipment and 7% use of separate dialysis staff have been reported. Pathologic studies have revealed renal failure as the main etiologic factor in 87.4% of the patients, where hypertension was the main reason in 25% of the cases. 66% of the patients have a positive history of dental procedure that in case of observing sterilization rules, HEPATITIS B seems to be preventive. Meanwhile, vaccinating HBs Ag negative patients and using separate dialysis staff could be helpful.
