title: [Epidemiological evaluations of the incidence of posttransfusion hepatitis in Iaşi County in 1985-1995].
abstract: In the interval 1985-1995 the morbidity rate of viral hepatitis of various causes showed yearly variations, an average of 181 cases being recorded. The performed investigations revealed markers for viral hepatitis B in an yearly average of 154 cases for the 11 years under study. Posttransfusion hepatitis had an average incidence of 43 cases per year, in 59.1% the markers for viral hepatitis B being absent. 93.3% of the cases with posttransfusion hepatitis belonged to the age groups over 20 years and workers presented a mean yearly incidence of 28.3% of all cases. In 1995 the blood donors with viral hepatitis C antibodies represented 4.05% and 75% of them belonged to the age groups 21-60 years, 50% of them being industrial workers and 40% having the A II blood group. Of the 321 admitted cases, 26.7% presented AgHBs, 8.4% AcVHC, in 2.3% markers for both viruses were evidenced and in 62.8% of the cases the diagnosis was made on epidemiological criteria and serologic exclusion (non A, B, C) without excluding the possible intervention of other hepatitic viruses.
