The Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program was established in 1991 to prevent hepatitis B transmission from pregnant women to their infants and household and sexual contacts.
Prevention of perinatal hepatitis B transmission requires the coordinated transfer of information between prenatal care providers, laboratories, hospitals, primary care providers and the local/state health departments.
Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program (PHBPP)
The Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program is to identify hepatitis B surface antigen-positive (HBsAg-positive) persons prenatally or at delivery for each pregnancy so that their infants, household, and sexual contacts can be tested and treated to prevent the spread of the hepatitis B virus (HBV).
Your Role in the PHBPP
Your roles in the Perinatal Hepatitis B Prevention Program are working in a laboratory, prenatal care, hospital, pediatric care and health care.
