Implementing Vaccine Preventable Hepatitis (VPH) Immunization Into Practice Across Specialties
Options for the prevention of hepatitis A and B have become available
through the identification of immunizations that have recently been elucidated
after years of research. Physicians must understand this research, including
findings regarding epidemiological trends and at-risk populations, in order
to initiate positive changes in immunization practices. Moreover, physicians
should be familiar with the benefits and liabilities associated with existing
immunization policies, consensus guidelines and clinical evidence, strategies
designed to close the gaps in immunization programs, and methods for overcoming
barriers to universal vaccination initiatives. The relevance of this information
must also be addressed with individual specialties—primary care, infectious
diseases, gastroenterology, and obstetrics/ gynecology—to emphasize the
broad applicability of preventative measures for vaccine-preventable hepatitis
(VPH).
