Use of Phylogenetic Analysis of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) Hypervariable Region 1 Sequences To Trace an Outbreak of HCV in an Autodialysis Unit

1 Apr 2002

Abstract excerpt

Hemodialysis patients are at high risk of infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV). The aim of this study was to investigate an HCV outbreak that occurred in an autodialysis unit by using epidemiological and molecular methods. Seroconversion to HCV antibody (anti-HCV) was observed in two patients over an 18-month period; two other patients had previously been recorded as anti-HCV positive. All four patients involved...
