miteolu: Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Hepatitis B infection can be spread through having contact with the blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and other body fluids of someone who already has a hepatitis B infection.
Infection can be spread through: Blood transfusions Direct contact with blood in health care settings Sexual contact with an infected person Tattoo or acupuncture with unclean needles or instruments Shared needles during drug use Shared personal items (such as toothbrushes, razors, and nail clippers) with an infected person The hepatitis B virus can be passed to an infant during childbirth if the mother is infected.
Risk factors for hepatitis B infection include: Being born, or having parents who were born in regions with high infection rates (including Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean) Being infected with HIV Being on hemodialysis Having multiple sex partners Men having sex with men
Most of the damage from the hepatitis B virus occurs because of the way the body responds to the infection. When the body's immune system detects the infection, it sends out special cells to fight it off. However, these disease-fighting cells can lead to liver inflammation. Symptoms
After you first become infected with the hepatitis B virus: You may have no symptoms You may feel sick for a period of days or weeks You may become very ill (called fulminant hepatitis) If your body is able to fight off the hepatitis B infection, any symptoms that you had should go away over a period of weeks to months. Some people's bodies are not able to completely get rid of the hepatitis B infection. This is called chronic hepatitis B. Many people who have chronic hepatitis B have few or no symptoms. They may not even look sick. As a result, they may not know they are infected. However, they can still spread the virus to other people.
Symptoms may not appear for up to 6 months after the time of infection.
Early symptoms may include: Appetite loss Fatigue Fever, low-grade Muscle and joint aches Nausea and vomiting Yellow skin and dark urine due to jaundice People with chronic hepatitis may have no symptoms, even though gradual liver damage may be occurring. Over time, some people may develop symptoms of chronic liver damage and cirrhosis of the liver. Signs and tests
The following tests are done to identify and monitor liver damage from hepatitis B: Albumin level Liver function tests Prothrombin time The following tests are done to help diagnose and monitor people with hepatitis B: Antibody to HBsAg (Anti-HBs) -- a positive result means you have either had hepatitis B in the past, or have received a hepatitis B vaccine Antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (Anti-HBc) -- a positive result means you had a recent infection or an infection in the past Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) -- a positive result means you have an active infection Hepatitis E surface antigen (HBeAg) -- a positive result means you have a hepatitis B infection and are more likely to spread the infection to others through sexual contact or sharing needles
Patients with chronic hepatitis will need ongoing blood tests to monitor their status.
Treatment
Acute hepatitis needs no treatment other than careful monitoring of liver and other body functions with blood tests. You should get plenty of bed rest, drink plenty of fluids, and eat healthy foods.
In the rare case that you develop liver failure, you may need a liver transplant. A liver transplant is the only cure in some cases of liver failure. some patients with chronic hepatitis may be treated with antiviral medications or a medication called peginterferon. These medications can decrease or remove hepatitis B from the blood and reduce the risk of cirrhosis and liver cancer. Liver transplantation is used to treat severe, chronic hepatitis B liver disease. Patients with chronic hepatitis should avoid alcohol and should always check with their doctor or nurse before taking any over-the-counter medications or herbal supplements. This even includes medications such as acetaminophen, aspirin, or ibuprofen.s B.
