Term Description

HDV screening of all Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) patients is recommended and HDV viral load (HDVL) detection and measurement should be considered whether or not the patients already have antibodies to HDV. In CHB patients, HDV can occur as a co-infection or superinfection and the course of the disease may be accelerated. PMID: 24293018
This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, ARUP Laboratories' Hepatitis Delta Virus Quantitative Real Time RT-PCR assay. The viral load is reported in IU/mL. The IU conversion factor, as determined by validation, is 1 IU/mL = 138 copies/mL.

Part Description

LP16711-1   Hepatitis D virus
Infection with the hepatitis delta virus (hepatitis delta-agent, HDV) is always seen in association with hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection, where it may occur as a simultaneous acute infection or as an acute super-infection superimposed upon a case of chronic HBV hepatitis. This is an RNA virus that requires the presence of HBV for viral replication to occur. The serologic diagnosis of HDV depends upon the finding of HDV antigen and/or the presence of anti-HDV. Patients will almost invariably have detectable hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and/or antibodies to hepatitis core antigen (anti-HBc) and hepatitis Be antigen (HBeAg). In patients with acute co-infections, hepatitis D antigen (HDVAg) appears early after HBsAg does and disappears with convalescence. Acute HDV infections are associated with anti-HDV IgM antibody and chronic cases usually only demonstrate IgG antibody. Both antibodies may eventually disappear following convalescence. The simultaneous assessment of anti-HBc IgM will help to differentiate co-infections (present) from super-infections (absent). Information is from ARUP Laboratories. Source: Regenstrief Institute
