I have gone through to the site but can only find the existing edition. I have printed out the new stuff on Varicella but can't find anything with Draft on it.

Hi Kim,
Think we may have worked together at Avesta steel. With regards to Hep B
levels being within the last 5 years, I have no idea where this advice
comes
from. I know that certain agencies do ask for this but I presumed that
this
was due to them not having and OH service and therefore being confused.
As far as I am aware a level of over >100 is accepted as protection
whatever
the year it was taken in.
Hope this helps.

Dear all,
Can I start another trail of discussion. I'm invovled in paper
screening agency nurses who are placed in the NHS, to ensure
vaccinations
etc are up-to-date. My question relates to the level of evidence that
NHS
colleagues accept as a positive result for Hep B.
At present, the standards from the agency are that I have to see
either a laboratory report or other official report from GP/OH dept with
a
titre level over 100, but it must be dated within 5 years. (Some of you
may
already be aware of this through contact with these nurses asking for
copy
of results). However I am also aware that some Hospital/Trusts are
taking an
alternative view - providing a positive responspe has been seen then no
further levels are needed. I have been directed towards the DOH
guidelines
as well. The latest date for reissue of the'green' book is June, so the
bible is unhelpful.
Basically, my question is - what do you do, and where do you
source
your best practice from? I can discuss changing standards with the
agency
but need to be able to justify the change.
Many Thanks
Kim
