Hepatitis C Virus in Pregnancy: An Opportunity to Screen and Treat

Hepatitis C Virus in Pregnancy: An Opportunity to Screen and Treat

The opioid crisis has resulted in an increase in hepatitis C virus (HCV) prevalence among persons of reproductive age, including pregnant persons.  There have been significant recent changes in the screening and treatment strategies for HCV due to the advent of highly effective and well tolerated direct acting antiviral medications.  In this webinar, the current HCV screening and management recommendations for pregnant persons will be reviewed.  In addition, best practices for postpartum HCV care linkage will be presented.  The data to date for HCV treatment in pregnancy with sofosbuvir-based regimens will also be discussed.
