Hepatitis B virus infection is the most important cause of acute and chronic liver disease worldwide. The Immunization Practices Advisory Committee has proposed a comprehensive strategy to eliminate the transmission of hepatitis B virus in the United States. The three phases of this strategy are prevention of perinatal transmission of the hepatitis B virus, universal vaccination of all infants against hepatitis B virus infection and selected vaccination of high-risk adolescents and adults. Because family physicians provide obstetric, perinatal, adolescent and adult care, they can have a major influence on the success of this strategy.
乙型肝炎病毒感染是全球急性和慢性肝病的最重要病因。免疫实践咨询委员会已提出一项在美国消除乙型肝炎病毒传播的综合策略。该策略的三个阶段是预防乙型肝炎病毒的围产期传播、对所有婴儿进行普遍的乙型肝炎病毒感染疫苗接种以及对高危青少年和成年人进行选择性疫苗接种。由于家庭医生提供产科、围产期、青少年和成人护理，他们对该策略的成功实施可产生重大影响。
