Presentation Title:

Viral hepatitis A, B and C and their impact on the course of the gestational process and the condition of newborns

Abstract

Despite advancements in medical science and the continuous adoption of innovative medical technologies aimed at controlling infectious diseases, viral hepatitis remains a major contributor to elevated rates of illness and mortality. HA is a typical anthroponosis. The sources of viruses are patients in the incubation period, prodromes and in the initial phase of the disease. The impact of HA on the course of pregnancy is primarily that the risk of premature termination increases approximately twice. Acute hepatitis B is an acute inflammation of the liver caused by a DNA-containing virus, which is transmitted parenterally, perinatally and sexually from person to person. The impact of hepatitis B is that the risk of premature abortion increases many times. HC is an acute or chronic liver disease caused by a single-stranded RNA-containing virus. The routes of HC transmission are divided into parenteral and non-parenteral. In positive anti-HCV women, the incidence of premature birth is 29% (compared to 19% in the CG). Considering that HC may be associated with drug addiction, the prognosis for a pregnant woman in the acute stage is extremely unfavorable.
