Abstract/Notes
Excerpt: Concerns about risk for transmission of hepatitis B and human immunodeficiency viruses in the health care setting led to a series of meetings, beginning in December 1991, organized by the Laboratory Centre for Disease Control, Department of National Health and Welfare. The purpose oftheseforums was
to define areas ofconsensus among interested Canadian groups on issues related to transmission of bloodborne pathogens including hepatitis B virus (HBV) and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)from health care workers to patients/clients in a health care setting. It was accepted that similar recommendations would apply to the testing, disclosure and management of patients. Although data are lacking on the risks of transmission of hepatitis C and non-HIV human lymphotropic viruses in the health care setting, the approach to other bloodborne viruses is expected to be similar to that for HBV and HIV.
