Among 333 patients followed-up after surgery involving a heart-lung machine between 1975 and 1976 seven (2.1%) fell ill with hepatitis. Only in two of them (0.6%) hepatitis B had occurred, caused by HBs-antigen positive blood which had had to be given for a vital indication without testing beforehand. This low rate of disease must now be considered preventable, as in 1975, the time of the transfusions, blood donor control had not reached present-day perfection due to the short period of use of radioimmuno-assay (RIA). In two patients (0.6%) non-B hepatitis following transfusion cannot be excluded although in one patient use of PPSB may be responsible for the disease. Among the 3 other hepatitis cases no aetiological connection between hepatitis and transfusion could be established on the grounds of the incubation period.
在1975年至1976年间接受心肺机手术后接受随访的333例患者中，有7例（2.1%）患了肝炎。其中只有2例（0.6%）发生了乙型肝炎，是由HBs抗原阳性血液引起的，这些血液因紧急指征而不得不未经预先检测就予以输注。现在必须认为这种低发病率是可以预防的，因为在1975年输血时，由于放射免疫测定法（RIA）使用时间短，献血者控制尚未达到目前的完善程度。在2例患者（0.6%）中，不能排除输血后发生非B型肝炎，尽管在1例患者中，使用人胎盘血白蛋白可能是该病的病因。在其他3例肝炎病例中，根据潜伏期无法确定肝炎与输血之间的病因联系。
