Abstract Objective To investigate the prevalence of hepatitis B virus ( HBV ) infection among volunteer blood donors in Hangzhou City, and to evaluate the residual risk of transfusion-transmitted HBV infections. Methods Data pertaining to volunteer blood donors in Hangzhou City from 2016 to 2019 were retrieved from the blood donor management system. Hepatitis B surface antigen ( HBsAg ) was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ) and HBV DNA was detected using nucleic acid testing. The incidence/window period model was employed to assess the residual risk of HBV transmitted through transfusion from donors. Results The prevalence of HBV infections was 0.56% among the 320 755 first-time donors and 0.13% among the 279 816 repeat donors in Hangzhou City from 2016 to 2019, and a higher prevalence of HBV infection was detected among first-time donors than among repeat donors ( P<0.05 ). The residual risks of transfusion-transmitted HBV infection were 296.38 per million person-times ( 95%CI: 277.57 to 315.19 per million person-times ) and 98.79 per million person-times ( 95%CI: 87.15 to 110.43 per million person-times ) among first-time and repeat donors with positive HBsAg, and were 86.79 per million person-times ( 95%CI: 76.60 to 96.98 per million person-times ) and 28.93 per million person-times ( 95%CI: 22.63 to 35.23 per million person-times ) among first-time and repeat donors tested positive for HBV DNA, respectively. Conclusions There is still a residual risk of HBV infection transmitted through transfusion from blood donors in Hangzhou City. Nucleic acid testing may remarkably reduce the residual risk of transfusion-transmitted HBV infection in blood donors.
