title: [Hepatitis B prevention after occupational exposure].
abstract: The course of a programme for protection from hepatitis B after occupational exposure is assessed. Passive/active prophylaxis from hepatitis B was offered to 51 persons but only 28% completed the entire regimen. The programme for vaccination of staff prior to exposure must be intensified and not only this programme but also the protective programme after exposure must include reminders to individuals who do not follow the programme.
