ABSTRACTS

Hepatitis B and C infections are potentially life-threatening liver infection and a major global health problem. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence of Hepatitis B and C infections among pregnant women attending antenatal care at Federal Medical Centre Makurdi.  A systematic random sampling technique was used to select pregnant women. A total of 155 pregnant women were recruited for the study. Data on sociodemographic and associated factors were collected using a structured questionnaire. Their venous blood samples collected, and hepatitis B and c profile was carried out using commercially available rapid chromatographic kits.  The overall prevalence of hepatitis B and C infections among pregnant women was 7.7% and 14.19% respectively. However, there was no co-infection.   Educational status was notably associated with Hepatitis B and C infections prevalence. Uneducated pregnant women had the highest prevalence of HBsAg and HCV infections (16.67% and 23.33% respectively). Age, marital status, blood transmission history, vaccination history, occupation were all factors contributing to Hepatitis B and C prevalence. This study showed that hepatitis B and C is  endemic in this region. The provision of proper awareness on hepatitis B and C viruses’ transmission, vaccination, and screening of all pregnant women routinely are essential for the prevention of these viruses
