VA examiners should ask patients about their multi-dose vial HCV risk exposure to meet today’s best practices and standards of care


doc chartSoon private physicians must make basic improvements in their practices. If they deliver haphazard care, they can face penalties.  If they follow evidence-based practices, they can be rewarded. Therefore, professional medical associations are creating learning modules, called Practice in Improvement, or PIMs.  The Hepatitis C Chart Questions was published by the American Board of Internal Medicine (2011). Some kind soul uploaded it online (read in full screen).  

#54 Question Text:  Identification of Risk Factors/Transmission Mode

Docs should ask about exposure to  #3  Unsafe therapeutic injections (e.g. cross-contamination from reused needles or syringes, multiple-use medication vials)?

Boot camp jet-injector vaccinations have multi-dose vials so the answer is yes.  It’s not too late to update your medical records in writing for your private physician, VA doc, C & P examiner ect..,because this is an authoritative source.  It’s not “internet junk” as the BVA likes to call submissions.

I’ve had a tough time getting the slides into a printable format but try this: hcv multi-dose vial presentation pdf .

    I think it should be accompanied by the statement from the FDA that says …

    “Only one vaccine — one that prevents measles, mumps and rubella — is FDA-approved for administration with a jet injector”

    Because……

    “The federal agency said today it has no data to support the safety of most vaccines delivered by jet injectors.”
