title: [Anamnestic incidence of hepatitis B in the population of Prague stomatologists].
abstract: The author assessed by means of questionnaires the incidence of hepatitis B and the use of protective devices in a group of 612 Prague stomatologists. Fifty-four (3.8%) reported hepatitis B. 17.5% of the doctors were vaccinated against the condition. Doctors who treat 20 or more patients per day report hepatitis B four times more frequently than those who treat only to 20 patients per day. 53.5% of the doctors never use rubber gloves during treatment. For the prevention of transmission of infection in addition to hygienic provisions also the organization of work must be changed.
