Hepatitis B
URL of this page: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/hepatitisb.html Also called: HBV Hepatitis B is one type of hepatitis – a liver disease- caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). Hepatitis B spreads by contact with an infected person's blood, semen or other body fluid. An infected woman can give hepatitis B to her baby at birth. If you get HBV, you may feel as if you have the flu, or you may have no symptoms at all. A blood test can tell if you have it. HBV usually gets better on its own after a few months. If it does not get better, it is called chronic HBV, which lasts a lifetime. Chronic HBV can lead to scarring of the liver , liver failure or liver cancer There is a vaccine for HBV. It requires three shots. All babies should get the vaccine, but older children and adults can get it too. If you travel to countries where Hepatitis B is common, you should get the vaccine.

What is hepatitis?
Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can be caused by a group of viruses. There are five major types of viral hepatitis: A B C D , and E When hepatitis viruses damage liver cells, scar tissue is formed and those cells can no longer function. With fewer healthy liver cells, the body begins to show symptoms ranging from mild (such as fatigue) to more severe symptoms (such as mental confusion). Although many cases of hepatitis are not a serious threat to health, the disease can sometimes become chronic (long-lasting) and may lead to liver failure and death. In many cases, viral hepatitis is a self-resolving illness. Sexual activity poses a different level of risk for each type of viral hepatitis, but is most closely associated with HBV. Blood transfusion, IV needle sharing and organ transplants may also pose a risk for transmission. Hepatitis A and B are preventable through vaccination, though no vaccination currently exists for hepatitis C or E. Since hepatitis D only infects persons with active hepatitis B, the vaccine for hepatitis B prevents hepatitis D. For more information, see

Half of all people infected with the hepatitis B virus have no symptoms. Symptoms develop within 30-180 days of exposure to the virus. The symptoms are often compared to flu. Most people think they have flu and never think about having HBV infection.

The word hepatitis comes from the Ancient Greek word hepar (root word hepat ) meaning 'liver', and the Latin itis meaning inflammation. Hepatitis means injury to the liver with inflammation of the liver cells.
What is the liver?
The liver is the largest gland in the human body. It weighs approximately 3 lb (1.36 kg). It is reddish brown in color and is divided into four lobes of different sizes and lengths. It is also the largest internal organ (the largest organ is the skin). It is below the diaphragm on the right in the thoracic region of the abdomen. Blood reaches the liver through the hepatic artery and the portal vein. The portal vein carries blood containing digested food from the small intestine, while the hepatic artery carries oxygen-rich blood from the aorta.
The liver is made up of thousands of lobules, each lobule consists of many hepatic cells - hepatic cells are the basic metabolic cells of the liver.

Hepatitis A
Hepatitis A is inflammation (irritation and swelling) of the liver caused by the hepatitis A virus. See also:
Causes
The hepatitis A virus is found mostly in the stools and blood of an infected person about 15 - 45 days before symptoms occur and during the first week of illness. You can catch hepatitis A if:
  • You eat or drink food or water that has been contaminated by the virus (fruits, vegetables, shellfish, ice, and water are common sources of the hepatitis A virus) You come in contact with the stool or blood of a person who currently has the disease A person with hepatitis A does not wash his or her hands properly after going to the bathroom and touches other objects or food You participate in sexual practices that involve oral-anal contact
There are about 100,000 hepatitis A infections in the United States every year. Risk factors include:
  • International travel, especially to Asia or South or Central America

Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver that can be caused by a group of viruses. There are five major types of viral hepatitis:
Hepatitis A

(HAV)
Hepatitis B (HBV) ... (HEV) HAV, HBV and HCV are the most common types of viral hepatitis found in the United States How does someone get hepatitis? The hepatitis A virus can enter a person's body when he or she eats or drinks something contaminated with the stool or blood of someone who has the disease. Symptoms usually appear suddenly, but are not followed by the chronic (long-lasting) problems that hepatitis B and C viruses can cause. The hepatitis B virus can infect a person if his or her mucous membranes or blood are exposed to an infected person's blood, saliva, semen, or vaginal secretions. Hepatitis C is spread by contact with the blood of an infected person. Symptoms appear more gradually than in hepatitis A. Unlike hepatitis A, the hepatitis B and C viruses can stay in the bodysometimes for a lifetimeand eventually cause chronic, serious liver diseases. What are the symptoms of hepatitis?

World Health Organization [English] Text only About Us Documents ... Vaccines Home
Hepatitis A vaccine
Summary and conclusion The results of appropriate epidemiological and cost-benefit studies should be carefully considered before deciding on national policies concerning immunization against hepatitis A. As part of this decision process, the public health impact of hepatitis A should be weighed against the impact of other vaccine-preventable infections, including diseases caused by hepatitis B, Haemophilus influenzae type b, rubella and yellow fever. In countries highly endemic for hepatitis A, almost all persons are infected in childhood with the virus without showing symptoms, effectively preventing clinical hepatitis A in adolescents and adults. In these countries, large-scale vaccination programmes are not recommended. In countries of intermediate disease endemicity, where a relatively large proportion of the adult population is susceptible to HAV, and where hepatitis A represents a significant public health burden, large-scale childhood vaccination may be considered as a supplement to health education and improved sanitation. In regions of low disease endemicity, vaccination against hepatitis A is indicated for individuals with increased risk of contracting the infection, such as travellers to areas of intermediate or high endemicity.
