CDC Recommendations
(August 2012)
*** InCanada : CLF suggests 1945-1975
→ One-time testing during a yearly checkup or as a part of insurance
blood work
In the US, >75% of adults with chronic hepatitisC are baby boomers
• 73.4% of HCV-related deaths were in persons 45-64 years of age
Screening of those born between 1945-19651,2
Virological tests to confirm
HCV infection
• Anti-HCV
• HCV-RNA
• HCV genotype
Bloodwork
• CBC
• Liver enzyme & function tests:
• ALT,AST, GGT, alkaline phosphatase,
bilirubin, INR (or PT), albumin
• NormalALT is not a contraindication to
treatment (⅓ have normal test results)2
• Creatinine
16
ALT : alanine aminotransferase; AST : aspartate transaminase;CBC: complete blood count; GGT: gamma-glutamyl transferase;HAV: hepatitisA virus; HAV-AB: hepatitisA antibody; HB: hepatitis
B; HBsAG:hepatitis B surface antigen; HBsAb: hepatitisB surface antibody; HIV: human immunodeficiencyvirus; INR: Internationalnormalized ratio; PT: Prothrombin time

Hepatitis C: Summary
• HCV is common
• Screening for HCV is imperative
– ‘baby-boomers’ and immigrants
• Viral eradication / cure in 70-90%
• Viral eradication has a mortality benefit
