Hello, I don't remember if I was vaccinated against jaundice, and if I have an operation in the coming months. I did a blood test for Anti-HBs antibodies quantitatively. My result is negative, 6.60 mlU / ml (max 10). I am asking for an interpretation of this result. I will be grateful for your answer.
You should ask the surgeon who has determined the indications for the surgery and will perform the surgery, to establish the procedure and determine the antibody titre he considers necessary. A titer above 10 is considered. for the minimum security titer, over 30 for medium security and over 100 for full security. The amount of antibody titer is variable and depends on the time interval from vaccination.
