Abstract:

The prevention of mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) involves multidisciplinary collaboration across departments including obstetrics and gynecology, infectious diseases and others.However, several challenges persist in current clinical practice, such as inadequate hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) screening for pregnant women and non-standardized management protocols for HBsAg-positive mothers and their newborns after delivery.To enhance the prevention quality of HBV mother-to-child transmission, the National Medical Quality Control Center for Infectious Diseases has established standardized quality control indicators and developed this consensus document.This consensus aims to assist healthcare institutions at all levels in implementing these quality control indicators.The consensus provides recommendations regarding three key aspects: the clinical signiflcance of quality control indicators, standardized data collection procedures, and continuous quality improvement strategies for optimizing the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HBV.
