| Abstract: | A seroepidemiologic survey of pregnant women in Split region was performed in order to determine a strategy for prenatal screening for HBsAg. Thirty (7.5%) of 400 women had the markers of past or current HBV infection, while 3/400 (0.75%) were carriers. According to demographic data and risk factors they represent low risk population. General prenatal screening for HBsAg is advisable. |
