Basado en esta necesidad, se evaluaron los distintos motivos de rechazo de personas donantes de sangre, haciendo énfasis en el descarte por serología positiva. De los cuatro mil individuos que se atendieron en promedio en la última década, se rechazaron cerca de un 20%, siendo las serologías positivas las responsables de una cuarta parte de estos rechazos. La mayor problemática ha pasado de ser las pruebas positivas de Chagas y VDRL, a los distintos marcadores de hepatitis B y C, especialmente los anticuerpos anti-HBcore. En el período 2003-2004, los portadores crónicos de hepatitis B constituyeron la mayoría de exámenes positivos, con una incidencia del 1.8%. Si se comparan los datos obtenidos en el presente reporte con estudios similares realizados en países como Estados Unidos y Argentina, encontramos una baja incidencia de serologías positivas.</p></abstract>
