Abstract

Background and Objective: HEPATITIS E virus is one of the most common causes of acute infection in adults. Pregnant and transplant patients are more in risk of HEV infection. Fecal-oral is the main route of HEV transmission but recently transmission by blood transfusion has been observed. This study was aimed to determine the prevalence of HEV-Ab in HEMODIALYSIS patients in GORGAN, Iran.Material and Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study, we investigated 150 HEMODIALYSIS patients of Panje Azar hospital in GORGAN. These patients were evaluated for the presence of HEV total Ab by ELISA method.Results: Of 150, 6 patients (4%) are positive for HEV-Ab. There has been no significant relation between anti HEV Ab and variables such as age, gender, ethnicity, duration and number of HEMODIALYSIS in a week and (P>0.05).Conclusion: This study, which is the first report from this area, show that the lower prevalence of anti HEV Ab in HEMODIALYSIS patients in comparison with pregnant and childbearing age women.
