Abstract
The antigen-specific ELISA test gave no false negative results, supporting its utility as a screening tool. There was one true antigen positive result. Further investigation including cost analysis is indicated to determine the efficacy of HEV antigen-specific ELISA testing in a screening context and in the clinical investigation of HEV infection in immunocompromised patients.
