Detection of immunoglobulin M antibody to hepatitis A virus in Alaska residents without other evidence of hepatitis.

Louisa Castrodale1, Anthony Fiore, Terry Schmidt.   

Abstract

During a 38-month period, 13 of 41 persons with test results positive for IgM antibody to hepatitis A virus did not meet the case definition for hepatitis A or have a clear indication for testing, which suggests that test results were falsely positive. No single testing platform or kit was used. Health care providers should restrict serologic testing for hepatitis A to patients with clinical or epidemiologic indications.
