Abstract

Discovering and treating potential hepatitis C infections has become an important strategy to eliminate hepatitis C in China. Currently, the rate of screening and misdiagnosis of hepatitis C antibodies in Chinese hospitals is high, but the rate of physician consultation is low. Therefore, with the cooperation of multiple departments of the hospital, the establishment and implementation of hepatitis C screening and referral channels can effectively improve the diagnosis, referral and treatment rate of hepatitis C patients. This article summarizes the recent research progress of hepatitis C screening and referral in the hospitals.

发现和治疗潜在的丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染者已成为我国消除丙型肝炎的重要策略。目前,我国医院内开展抗-HCV筛查率较高,但是丙型肝炎的漏诊率高,就诊率低。在医院内建立和实施丙型肝炎筛查和转诊路径,通过医院多部门协同联动的方式,能有效提高丙型肝炎患者的确诊率、转诊率和治疗率。现就近年来医院内丙型肝炎筛查和转诊的最新研究进展进行综述。.
