Screening pregnant women for chronic hepatitis B
Determining the level of infectivity of chronic hepatitis B in pregnant women
This test is not useful for diagnosis of hepatitis B during the "window period" of acute hepatitis B virus infection (ie, after disappearance of hepatitis B surface antigen and prior to appearance of hepatitis B surface antibody).

EAG | Hepatitis Be Ag, S | Yes | No |
HEAB | HBe Antibody, S | Yes | No |

If hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) prenatal is reactive, then HBsAg confirmation prenatal will be performed at an additional charge. If HBsAg confirmation is positive, then hepatitis Be-antigen (HBe) and HBe-antibody tests will be performed at an additional charge.
