Screening For HBV Antibodies

Hepatitis B is a viral infection that affects the liver.

The only way to know if you have hepatitis B is by getting a Hepatitis B Immunity Test. This blood test screens for Hepatitis B (HBV) antibodies present in your blood.

This determines if your immune system has successfully responded to the Hepatitis B vaccine or if you have been previously exposed to the virus and developed natural immunity.

Hepatitis B Explained

Hepatitis B is caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). It is highly contagious and can spread through contact with infected blood, saliva, semen, or vaginal fluids. It can also be passed from a mother to her baby. Chronic hepatitis B can lead to serious health problems, including liver damage, liver cancer, and liver failure.

However, a blood test can help detect Hep B early and help prevent the development of severe liver disease. Vaccination against HBV is also available and is very effective in helping prevent infection.

Hepatitis B Symptoms

Many people are asymptomatic. However, if symptoms occur, they may develop within 1 to 4 months after exposure. Some common Hepatitis B symptoms include:

  • Fatigue
  • Dark urine
  • Clay-coloured stools
  • Low-grade fever is common
  • Jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes)
  • Loss of appetite (often accompanied by nausea or vomiting)
  • Abdominal pain (particularly in the upper right side, where the liver is located)

Bear in mind, as of the latest estimates, approximately 108,000 individuals in London are currently living with chronic hepatitis B.

Do You Need To Get Tested?

If you have had exposure to high-risk environments or professions (e.g., healthcare workers), or planning to travel to regions with a high prevalence of Hepatitis B (like China, India, and Africa), a Hepatitis B Immunity Test may be recommended. You may also be advised to get tested if you are concerned about past exposure.

Benefits Of Getting Tested

Getting tested can help

  • Confirm your immunity status and understand your protection against Hepatitis B
  • Identify if additional vaccinations are necessary for full protection
  • Prevent future complications associated with Hepatitis B
  • Determine whether you need a booster shot to ensure you maintain optimal immunity levels against Hepatitis B

As an international visitor, I was very grateful for the prompt attention to my request for an appointment. Dr Ali was respectful and empathetic in regard to my condition and suggested further treatment, which I was able to organise for the next day. Both offices I attended treated me appropriately and I would recommend Harley Street Health Walk-in Clinics to anyone visiting London who requires medical attention.

Highly recommend City Walk-In Clinic Really pleased with my experience at City Walk-In Clinic. I booked a female hormone test because I wanted some answers about a few symptoms I'd been having, and the whole process was straightforward. The staff were welcoming, friendly and didn't make me feel rushed at all. The blood test was quick, and they explained everything clearly before taking the sample. My results came back sooner than I expected, and it was reassuring to have everything presented in a way that was easy to understand. I'd definitely use the clinic again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a private female hormone test. Professional service, lovely staff and an all round positive experience.

I had a private gp appointment yesterday as my feet have been swelling every day over the past few days. So I booked an appointment with Dr Heather. Dr Heather explained the possible causes of the swelling, including the heat that we are currently experiencing in London. Recommended further investigation if the swelling persists, to identify the underlying issue rather than just making assumptions.

I have used City Walk In Clinic as my go to place for routine blood tests. My recent full health check gave my doctor some clues that i may be approaching my menopause era. So my doctor has recommended that i do some tests to find out if indeed i am entering perimenopause, as the symptoms are there. Will be having my tests in the next few weeks. So glad i had a full health check, because all these symptoms were driving me crazy.

I attended The Harley Street Walk/in centre in the City recently. I was able to book my appointment the day before for a blood test at a time that suited me. The booking process was straightforward. The doctor that conducted the venous draw was efficient and very pleasant. I have never had such a painless venous draw and I have had many! My appointment was at 5pm and I had my results before 8 am the following day. I will be very happy to book my tests here in the future. Thank you.

I wanted a cholesterol check up and chose this clinic because it seemed to offer a competitive price for a detailed report. And so it turned out to be. Received a prompt and professional service at a price that was significantly less than other nearby providers in central London. I have now used it twice and would definitely recommend.

The Walk-In Clinic in central London exceeded my expectations in every way. Their attention to detail and commitment to tailored care for their patients truly sets them apart. The availability of evening appointments until 6:30 pm was a game-changer for someone like me juggling multiple commitments.

What are the possible results of a Hepatitis B Immunity Test?
The results can be categorised into three main outcomes. Positive, negative, and equivocal. A positive outcome indicates immunity. This is typically due to vaccination or a past infection. A negative outcome suggests you are not immune. This means you may need to get vaccinated. And equivocal refers to unclear results. In this situation, further testing is usually required.
How accurate is the test?
In general, the test is very accurate. However, results can vary based on factors like the timing of vaccination or infection. Your results can also be affected by certain health conditions, and the quality of the test sample.
Can I take the Hepatitis B Immunity Test if I have already been vaccinated?
Yes, you can. If you have been vaccinated for Hepatitis B, you can take the test to confirm whether or not you have developed sufficient immunity. The test will measure the presence of antibodies against the Hepatitis B virus, and if these antibodies are at adequate levels, it will confirm immunity.
Is Hepatitis B curable, and how does testing help in managing the condition?
Acute Hepatitis B usually goes away on its own without needing treatment. However, chronic Hepatitis B (which lasts a long time) cannot be cured at the moment. The good news is that it can be controlled with medication and regular check-ups to help protect the liver and prevent serious problems. Getting tested is important because it helps find the infection early, stop it from spreading, and make sure people get the right care. With proper treatment, most people with chronic Hepatitis B can live healthy lives.
