Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Health-care workers infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and performing exposure-prone procedures may expose their patients to the risk of nosocomial HCV infection. OBJECTIVE: To assess the number of provider-to-patient transmissions of HCV among former patients of an HCV-infected general surgeon. RESULTS: The notification exercise covered 1461 individuals, on whom the surgeon performed 1683...
