Antigen vs. Antibody: The Hep B Battle

Описание: This channel may make reference to guidelines produced by the "National Institute for Health and Care Excellence" in the UK, also referred to as "NICE". The content on this channel reflects my professional interpretation/summary of the guidance and I am in no way affiliated with, employed by or funded/sponsored by NICE.

My name is Fernando Florido (also known as Juan Fernando Florido Santana) and I am a General Practitioner in the United Kingdom. In this episode I go through a variety of guidelines and publications on hepatitis B serology in order to clarify the concept and understand the interpretation of the results. You can find links to the resources consulted in the description below.

I am not giving medical advice; this video is intended for health care professionals, it is only my summary and my interpretation of the guidelines and you must use your clinical judgement.
