\u00bfQu\u00e9 es la hepatitis C?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

La hepatitis C (VHC) es una enfermedad viral que afecta al h\u00edgado y puede causar una enfermedad hep\u00e1tica cr\u00f3nica. Las encuestas realizadas entre 2013 y 2016 indicaron que aproximadamente 2,4 millones de personas (1,0%) en el pa\u00eds viv\u00edan con hepatitis C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfCuales son los sintomas?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Las personas con una infecci\u00f3n por el VHC reci\u00e9n adquirida por lo general son asintom\u00e1ticas o tienen s\u00edntomas leves. El color amarillento de la piel (ictericia) puede ocurrir en personas 20%\u201330%, y los s\u00edntomas inespec\u00edficos (p. ej., malestar o dolor abdominal) pueden estar presentes en personas 10%\u201320%. Pueden pasar muchos a\u00f1os desde el momento en que una persona se infecta con el virus antes de que se presenten s\u00edntomas como fatiga extrema, cirrosis hep\u00e1tica, c\u00e1ncer de h\u00edgado o insuficiencia hep\u00e1tica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

De cada 100 adultos infectados con hepatitis C...<\/strong><\/p>

75-80 <\/strong>desarrollar hepatitis C cr\u00f3nica<\/p>

60-70 <\/strong>desarrollar una enfermedad hep\u00e1tica cr\u00f3nica<\/p>

5-20 <\/strong>desarrollar cirrosis<\/p>

1-5 <\/strong>morir de enfermedad hep\u00e1tica o c\u00e1ncer<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Si su prueba de hepatitis C dio positivo o cree que est\u00e1 en riesgo, busque atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica de inmediato para ayudar a prevenir estas complicaciones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Datos de infecci\u00f3n<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u00bfC\u00f3mo se transmite la hepatitis C?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

La hepatitis C se transmite principalmente a trav\u00e9s de la sangre, lo que puede ocurrir por:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Recibir transfusiones de sangre, trasplantes de \u00f3rganos o productos sangu\u00edneos antes de que se implementaran los procedimientos de selecci\u00f3n de donantes (1992).<\/li>
  • Usar drogas intravenosas y compartir agujas y jeringas.<\/li>
  • Nacimiento cuando una madre est\u00e1 infectada con el VHC.<\/li>
  • Lesiones por pinchazo de aguja en entornos de atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Aunque es poco frecuente, el VHC tambi\u00e9n se puede propagar a trav\u00e9s de:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • Usar agujas sucias para tatuajes o perforaciones en el cuerpo.<\/li>
    • Tener relaciones sexuales con alguien que tiene hepatitis C.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      \u00bfCu\u00e1les son algunas formas en que la hepatitis C NO se transmite?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      La hepatitis C no se contagia en los alimentos ni en el agua. Tampoco puede contraer hepatitis C por:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      • Estornudos o tos.<\/li>
      • abrazando<\/li>
      • Tocar o dar la mano.<\/li>
      • besando<\/li>
      • Compartir utensilios para comer o vasos para beber.<\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
