Abstract

Objective: The emergence of Human immunodeciency virus(HIV), Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections has posed the greatest challenge to public health in modern era. Study was done retrospectively to nd out burden of HIV, HBV and HCV in community. Similarly we tried to study other sociodemographic factors and correlates of HIV. Methodology: A retrospective study was done. Serum samples were processed and analysed in the department of microbiology, in tertiary care hospital since JAN 20 to JAN 22. The study included all OPD and IPD patients sample. Results: A total of 21600 samples were analysed retrospectively. Prior consent was taken. Of these, 13490 were males and 8110 were females. The seroprevalence of HIV was found to be 0.5% , HBsAg 0.70% and HCV was 0.25 among population visiting Tertiary Care Centre. Coinfection rate of hepatitis B and hepatitis C with HIV positive patients was found to be 5 (0.23%). Conclusions: Prevalence HIV, HBV and HCV seropositivity was found to be very low in this population around our tertiary care hospital. Sexually transmitted infection history was most relevant risk factors of co-infection among seropositive population. Coinfection rate of hepatitis B and hepatitis C with HIV positive patients was on higher side among patients with high risk sexual behaviour..
