Research and Analysis Result of Recheck Blood Type in Part of Beijing Blood Bank / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the degree of risk of viral prevalence of HBV,HCV and HIV through blood transfusion in Beijing Hospital in China,and to assess the need of a national Haemovigilance System. METHODS Retrospectively,7883 blood bank specimens (collected from 2004 to 2007) were re-examined using 8 indicators (including 5-item Hepatitis B,anti-HCV,anti-HIV and Syphilis) for the prevalence of most common viral infection. RESULTS From the blood bank specimens,the prevalence of HBsAg was 0.88% (69),the anti-HBc positive blood,only the anti-HBc was found in 2.65% of the specimens,while both the anti-HBc and the anti-HBe were found in 2.09% of the specimens. The prevalence of anti-HCV was 0.09% (7). CONCLUSIONS We need to establish the national Haemovigilance System to strengthen the monitoring of the above HbsAg,HBcAb and HCV indicators to prevent the transfusion-transmitted infection. Only in this way can the public confidence in blood safety be improved.
