title: Management of hepatitis C by European hepatologists.
abstract: In 1996, the French Réseau National de Santé Publique was funded by the Direction General V of the EU to perform a European survey on the epidemiology, the surveillance, the prevention and the management of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in the EU member states. This study included two approaches: one consisting of a survey of public health authorities on all the implemented policies dealing with epidemiological status, surveillance and prevention of HCV infection; and the second, in which a large series of hepatologists were interviewed on their own practices with regard to hepatitis C.
