title: [Immunoprophylaxis in the prevention of perinatal transmission of hepatitis virus B. Analysis of limiting factors].
abstract: The significance of obstetric anamnesis in neonatal risk identification and efficiency of a vaccinal schedule were investigated in order to verify the condition which limited the efficiency of immunoprophylaxis in the prevention of perinatal hepatitis B virus transmission. The data suggested that the lack of obstetric screening is the highest limitative factors in the realization of hepatitis B neonatal prevention. The immunoprophylaxis is surely a substantial method in the prevention of hepatitis B virus perinatal transmission, but the vaccinal schedule and follow-up should be improved.
