BETANCOURT REYES, Gilberto Lázaro BETANCOURT BETANCOURT, Gilberto de Jesús. Viral hepatitis and the dialytic methods. []. , 43, 4, pp. 1079-1089. 31--2021. ISSN 1684-1824.
The authors theoretically approached the current problem of viral hepatitis and the dialytic methods -from the point of view of science, technology and society-, with the objective of pointing up the importance of its prevention in risk patients. They analyzed how the great development of the science, particularly in the field of medicine, and the enormous technological advance allow the usage of life support measures, like the dialytic methods of extra renal depuration. But, it involves a high risk of hepatitis transmission as nosocomial infection, a social problem that has to be urgently solved.
