Hepatitis B, Vacunación, Immunización, Personal de SaludResumen
Objetivo: Los profesionales de la salud trabajan con exposición a riesgos laborales por el virus de la hepatitis B (VHB). El estado de vacunación se ha explorado ampliamente; sin embargo, pocas investigaciones han confirmado la inmunidad al VHB mediante pruebas serológicas. Material y método: Realizamos un estudio multicéntrico basado en un enfoque dual para comprender los predictores de la vacunación contra el VHB y la seroprotección entre los profesionales de la salud. Se diseñó un estudio transversal entre 371 trabajadores del estado de Alagoas (Brasil); todos ellos del servicio de salud pública. Construimos un modelo de regresión de Poisson múltiple utilizando la vacunación y la seroprotección como factores dependientes. Resultados: La vacunación autoinformada total fue del 70,4% y la confirmación por respuesta inmune fue del 72,2%. Tres predictores se asociaron con la vacunación: nivel educativo; uso de equipo de protección personal durante el trabajo y evaluación serológica individual. Dos predictores se asociaron a la seroprotección: nivel educativo y uso de equipo de protección durante el trabajo. Conclusión: Nuestros hallazgos señalaron que casi un tercio de los profesionales de la salud no estaban inmunizados contra el VHB, y aporta alguna evidencia de que factores como la educación y el uso de equipo de protección personal pueden predecir la susceptibilidad al VHB.
