Abstract

Introduction: To determine the prevalence of Anti-HCV, Anti-HIV and HBS Ag positive in addict PRISONERS and some related factors for infection. Methods: Descriptive cross sectional study with physical examination and a questionire was performed. Four hundred and seventy nine addict PRISONERS were interviewed and their blood samples were obtained. Results: Of 479 addict PRISONERS, 280 (58.45%) were non-N drug abusers and the remaining (41%-54) were IV-drug abusers. Frequency of HCV Ab, HBS Ag and HIV Ab was 131(7.35%), 7 (1.46%) and 5 (1.04%), respectively. The relation between IVDU and Anti- HCV positive was statistically significant. Discussion: Infection with HEPATITIS C secondary to use of injected drugs is endemic in Hamadan PRISONERS. Better access to harm reduction strategies is needed in this setting.
