Who is studied

All patients hospitalized (ward or day hospital) at the Department of Medicine of ASST Papa Giovanni XXIII in Bergamo (OMS square and San Giovanni Bianco facility), as well as outpatients attending the SerD and the Penitentiary Health Service of the same ASST, who are indicated for the HBsAg test, will undergo "active HDV referral." Patients who test positive for HBsAg between September 1, 2025, and August 31, 2026, and who provide informed consent, will be included in the study. For all patients, the Microbiology and Virology Laboratory will automatically perform the anti-HDV test and, in case of positivity, automatically perform the HDV RNA test, initiating referral to the Gastroenterology, Hepatology, and Transplantation Unit.
