Abstract:
Objective:To explore the risk factors of occupational exposure of intern nurses in an infectious disease hospital, and put forward prevention and control strategies.
Methods:A retrospective analysis was made of 82 reported cases of occupational exposure of intern nurses in a tertiary infectious disease hospital from 2013 to 2017. The occupational exposure rate, pathogens, occurrence sites and exposure links of the intern nurses were analyzed.
Results:The overall occupational exposure rate of internship nurses in 2013-2017 was 6.20% (82/1322) .The pathogens were mainly HBV, 52 cases, accounting for 63.4%. The site of occurrence was mainly finger, 75 cases, accounting for 91.5%. In the occurrence of the process, 35 cases were taken, accounting for 42.7%; 20 cases of arteriovenous puncture, accounting for 24.4%; 17 cases of separation needles and finishing materials, accounting for 20.7%.
Conclusion:The incidence of blood-borne occupation of intern nurses is higher, which needs special attention in infectious disease hospitals. To prevent blood-borne occupational exposure of intern nurses, occupational safety education should be strengthened, clinical operation should be standardized and humanized management should be provided.
