Abstract

Background & Objectives: HEPATITIS B is a major health problem in Iran. Although seroconversion in vaccinated persons is estimated to be more than 90%, IMMUNE RESPONSE to HEPATITIS B vaccine has been reported to be varied in different studies. This study was done to assess the vaccine effects in health care workers (HCWs).Materials and Methods: I this descriptive, cross sectional study, HBSAb titer in 138 HBCAb negative, vaccinated HCWS in 10 health care centers was assessed using ELISA method. Of 138 HCWS, 60.1% were females and 39.9 males.Results: 69.9% developed protective IMMUNE RESPONSE. Age was a significant factor in responsiveness. Sex, weight, and last vaccination time had no significant role.Discussion: In our study, rate of IMMUNE RESPONSE to HEPATITIS B was low. Thus, revaccination may be necessary for nonresponders. We suggest that cost-effectiveness of the HEBERBIOVAC HB vaccine should be re-evaluated in high risk groups.
