invasive prenatal testingjaundiceviral hepatitisThis chapter presents an easy‐to‐follow algorithm for obstetric management of patients with Hepatitis B. Viral hepatitis is caused by members of the hepatitis family of small DNA viruses. Risk factors for acute hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection include...
Multiplex viral nucleic acid testing (NAT) and a discriminatory testing algorithm have been used to detect viral infections in blood donors. Non-discriminated reactive (NDR) results may arise from low hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA levels and are challenging for donor management by blood services. ...
Evaluation of the CDC proposed laboratory HIV testing algorithm among men who have sex with men (MSM) from five US metropolitan statistical areas using spe... Until recently most testing algorithms in the United States (US) utilized Western blot (WB) as the supplemental test. CDC has proposed...
Evaluation of HIV testing algorithms in Ethiopia: the role of the tie-breaker algorithm and weakly reacting test lines in contributing to a high rate of false positive HIV diagnoses. BMC Infect Dis. 2015;15:39. 42. ESTC: The Ethiopian science and technology commission (ESTC): National ...
An algorithm for management of HBV for pregnant persons is described in Fig. 27.2. Infants born to HBV-infected mothers are usually asymptomatic and should receive hepatitis B vaccine and HBIG within 12 hours of birth administered at different injection sites, but should not be treated with antiv...
An algorithm was developed to define treatment lines based on several assumptions: (1) all drugs administered within 15 days of treatment initi- ation were considered part of the same regimen and line of therapy; (2) a new line of therapy was defined as either a new drug added follow- ...
However, reflex HCV RNA testing on all anti-HCV IgG-positive samples has significant cost implications, and we suggest incorporating a time frame of three to six months into the laboratory reflex-testing algorithm to avoid unnecessary repeated HCV RNA testing whilst maintaining the ability to ...
The current study was designed to develop an algorithm for predicting drug resistance using chemiophysical data with artificially created neural networks. To this end, an intelligent and multidisciplinary program should be developed on the basis of the information to be gained on the essentials of ...

Access to affordable testing was a problem in the country. So wedeveloped a toolto help clinicians detect hepatitis B infections earlier. Using Nigerianpatient data, we developed analgorithmthat learns from the patient data, identifies patterns, and makes intelligent decisions to provide alerts and ...
