Hepatitis profile interpretation by microcomputer.
A simple BASIC computer program for interpreting two serologic markers of hepatitis A virus infection and five serologic markers of hepatitis B virus infection is described. The program is based on a two-dimensional matrix (table) containing all possible combinations of positive and negative test results with their associated interpretations. Clinically relevant reports are consistent, reliable, and legible. Sample reports are included.
