16
Q

Risks of Hep B on pregnancy

A
  • Neonatal transmission
  • Acute - minima;
  • Chronic - increased LFTs
  • Cirrhosis (usually amenorrhoea w advanced cirrhosis):
  • IUGR
  • PTB
  • FDIU
  • Choreo
  • PIH
  • Abruption
  • PPH
  • 15% have hepatic compensation
17
Q

Rationale for HBV Rx in pregnancy

A
  • Prevent maternal complications (25% die from HBV, 40% HCC)
  • Prevention of perinatal transmission
    (Usually Telbivudine)
18
Q

Risk of foetal/neonatal transmission

A

AN 5% (abruption, TPL or invasive procedures), Intrapartum 95%
No intervention 90%
W HBIG and vaccine at birth and 1 months of age ~5%

19
Q

House hold members, sexual partners and children with Hep BsAg + woman

A

Should all be screened and vaccinated if not already immune

20
Q

Prevalence of HBV infection

A

1%

Majority are people from an area of high prevalence

21
Q

Definition chronic HBV

A

HBVsAg + > 6/12 after exposure

22
Q

How can HBV be prevented?

A
  • Vaccine - children, contacts, HCW
  • Safe blood products
  • Prevention of vertical infection
  • Sexual prevention
23
Q

IS HBV vaccine safe in pregnancy

A

Yes
It is safe and effective
Only use if recommended e.g. post exposure and non-immune (give w immune globulin also)

24
Q

Is invasive testing safe in pregnancy?

A
  • Higher rate of transmission, but not extensively studied. Likely higher in women with a high viral load.
  • Likely higher w CVS and amnio
  • Consider NIPT
  • Careful counselling re risks involved
25
What are the predictors of perinatal transmission?
- HBeAg status (+ ~80% transmission, - ~20% transmission) | - Viral load (>108IU/mL)
26
What is the role of antivirals in pregnancy for HBV? (RANZCOG statement)
- it is emerging as a possible means of reducing viral load and subsequent perinatal transmission in those at high risk of immunoprophylaxis failure - currently no clear guidelines - management should be individualised - refer to specialised hep B clinic for immediate decision making and long term follow up - known association with post partum flare
27
What is the recommended MOD for pts with HBV?
MOD has not been shown to affect transmission | Invasive procedures should be avoided
28
What are the recommended infant immunisations for the prevention of HBV in ANZ?
RR transmission w vaccine and HBIG 0.08 RR transmission w vaccine only 0.28 Monovalent vaccine for ALL infants at 0,2,4,6 months HepBSAg + HB IG 100IU (separate thigh to the vaccine) one the day of birth Test baby at 9-12 months for HBVsAg and sAb > refer to paed
29
What about high risk preterm and LBW infants? (<32/40)
Do not respond as well to the vaccine 4 dose regeime (0,2,4,6) then either check the titre at 7/12 and give booster as required, or just give a booster at 12/12.
30
IS there a difference in HBV infection between bottle fed and breast fed infants?
No difference provided appropriate immunoprophylaxis given at birth
31
What long term follow up and care should women with HbsAG + receive?
Close monitoring for several months post partum to monitor flare lifelong follow up for complications of liver disease and HCC
32
ASID - when the Rx w Lamivudine/Tenofovir or Telbivudine
HbsAg + > HBV DNA If > log 7 from 30/40 recommend antiviral Rx, stopping between 4 and 12 weeks post partum
33
Effects Hep E Virus pregnancy
high mortality 15-20% fulminant hepatic failure mortality 5% predilection for pregnancy
34
Parvo B19 - % of population immune
~50% (30-60)
35
Parvo B19 - % of pregnancies affected
3%
36
Symptoms of maternal infection Parvo b19 = erythema infectiosum = slapped cheek = 5th disease
Adults rarely develop the facial rash Usually limb arthropathy x 1-2/52 viraemia from 1/52 post exposure for 1/52 not infectious after onset of rash/arthralgia
37
Pregnancy effects of Parvo B19
- Anaemia > 3% usually 5/52 after infection > 1/3 death. 1/3 resolution. 1/3 IUT. - Foetal loss - 10% w infection 20/40
38
Does Parvo cause congenital anomalies?
No
