Definitions

Hepatitis B incidence per 100,000 population as defined as the estimated number of new Hepatitis B cases arising in a given year, expressed as a rate per 100 000 population.

Concepts

Hepatitis B (HCV) is an infectious liver disease caused by hepatitis virus type B. The virus is more likely transmitted from mother to child and by contact with blood or other bodily fluids. The number of cases diagnosed for the first time is the number of newly recorded cases in the given year. The average annual population of general population is used to calculate Hepatitis B relative incidence.

Rationale and interpretation

Analyzing tuberculosis incidence allows assessing epidemiological situation in the country as a whole and by region, as well as effectiveness of treatment and preventive measures taken to combat tuberculosis. This indicator is also used to assess public health, social well-being and quality of treatment and preventive measures. Hepatitis B is preventable with safe, affordable and effective vaccines.

Method of computation

The indicator is calculated as the ratio of newly diagnosed Hepatitis B cases to the annual average population multiplied by 100,000. Hepatitis B incidence (HI) is calculated by the formula: HI = N * 100 000 / P1

where N – number of newly diagnosed cases recorded in given year; P1 – annual average population.
