dc.description.abstractBackground: Incidence of hepatitis B is 8-12% in Southeastern Anatolia Region of Turkey. In Diyarbakir, Batman, Siirt, Mardin, which are residential areas with a population of 2.2 million, 95000-144000 persons are suffering from this infectious disease. We aimed to increase the awareness of the public about Hepatitis B through the media, to monitor the impact of this disease on patients, and to determine prevention and treatment strategy. Methods: In four cities, 12 television programs lasting about 60-90 minutes, have been broadcasted 60 days apart between 01.01.2010-31.12.2011. At the same time, in a local newspaper, which was read in the whole region, a corner of hepatitis B formed and different topics, opinions, problems, and wrong treatment methods were discussed in, one day a week. Results: Admission of Diyarbakir patients to Dicle University Hospital was increased by 19% and Batman patients was increased by 23%. A significant difference (p <0.028) was observed in the number of patients admitted to the infectious diseases clinic for hepatitis B, between the years 2009-2011. Conclusion: Continuous media programs, especially in areas with low levels of socioeconomic status will be effective in diagnosis of new cases, monitoring and treatment, preventing of disease, and preventing of the spread.en_US
