Summary

Chronic viral hepatitis C is a public health problem and several management recommendations are available. According to the HAS, hepatitis C screening consists of a targeted screening of people at risk of infection by the virus, in particular to drug users, to people from countries with a high prevalence of the virus or who have received care in those countries, people transfused before 1992, or people who have been or have been imprisoned. Our study proposes to evaluate hepatitis C screening in consenting patients hospitalized in Saint Joseph. These previously identified patients with comorbidities will be cared for according to current national practices that reduce HCV morbidity and mortality.

Conditions

  • Hepatitis C

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Hepatitis C, serology

Inclusion of patients in conventional hospitalization at Saint Joseph Hospital. Each consenting patient benefits from a screening HCV serology carried out during a biological sample indicated by his state of health. In the case of positive HCV serology, an additional sample will be taken in search of viral replication. All detectable HCV PCR patients will be admitted to hepatology consultation for assessment of liver status including non-invasive methods and possible treatment according to the conditions of the Marketing Authorization and recommendations for routine clinical practice. Data on management (treatment or non-treatment and treatment outcome: prolonged virological response 12 weeks after completion of treatment) will be collected.
