To examine the relationship between occupational exposures and knowledge of universal precautions among medical students.
Graduating medical students were given a survey regarding occupational exposures suffered during their clinical rotations. The survey also tested students' knowledge of universal precautions by asking them to indicate what combination of gloves, mask, and eyeshields should be worn to satisfy universal precautions for ten common procedures.
At a seminar one week before graduation, 45 senior medical students were given the questionnaire. The response rate was 100% 84% of the surveyed students suffered at least one occupational exposure during their clinical training. Of those who had an exposure, 42% reported at least once to an exposure center. The mean percentage of correct answers on the protective equipment questionnaire was 71%. No correlation between number of exposures and score on the protective equipment questionnaire was found (r = 0.0).
Occupational exposures to blood are common among medical students. Few students report to exposure centers. Knowledge of universal precautions may not correlate with reduced risk of occupational exposures among medical students.
研究医学生职业暴露与通用防护措施知识之间的关系。
对即将毕业的医学生进行一项关于其临床实习期间所遭受职业暴露的调查。该调查还通过让学生指出针对十种常见操作应佩戴何种手套、口罩和护目镜组合以满足通用防护措施要求，来测试学生对通用防护措施的知识。
在毕业前一周的一次研讨会上，向45名高年级医学生发放了问卷。回复率为100%。84%的受访学生在临床培训期间至少遭受过一次职业暴露。在那些有暴露经历的学生中，42%至少向暴露中心报告过一次。防护设备问卷的正确答案平均百分比为71%。未发现暴露次数与防护设备问卷得分之间存在相关性（r = 0.0）。
医学生中血液职业暴露很常见。很少有学生向暴露中心报告。通用防护措施知识可能与医学生职业暴露风险降低无关。
