Abstract :
Background: Hepatitis B vaccination is an important preventive approach among high-risk group of medical students. Accordingly, this study was performed to determine the Anti-HBS antibody level after vaccination among medical students in clinical course in Mashad branch of Azad University of Medical Scienes in 2013 and 2014.
Methods and Materials: This study was performed as an observational study with descriptive cross-sectional manner. In this study, 154 medical students in clinical course in Mashad branch of Azad University of Medical Scienes in 2013 and 2014 were evaluated and the anti-HBS antibody was determined after vaccination.
Results: The results demonstrated that mean antibody titer was 186/5 ± 114/9 units per ml and 10 subjects (6/5%) had no antibody response. Male gender, higher BMI, and longer time passed from vaccination were contributing factors for lower antibody titer (P < 0/05).
Conclusions: Totally, according to the obtained results and comparison with other studies, it may be concluded that one out of sixteen medical students would have no antibody response after vaccination.
