This review demonstrates that funeral service professionals (FSPs) have a risk of exposure to bacterial and viral pathogens as well as to prion-mediated diseases. It reveals a lack of published studies focusing on the implementation and effectiveness of infection control policies for this occupational group as well as the difficulty involved in determining actual infection rates related to workplace exposure events. Possible reasons for this lack of data include the categorization of these workers by the Bureau of Labor Statistics Standard Occupational Classification System as service providers rather than health care professionals.
本综述表明，殡葬服务专业人员（FSPs）有接触细菌和病毒病原体以及朊病毒介导疾病的风险。它揭示了缺乏针对该职业群体感染控制政策的实施与有效性的已发表研究，以及确定与工作场所暴露事件相关的实际感染率所涉及的困难。缺乏这些数据的可能原因包括，美国劳工统计局标准职业分类系统将这些工人归类为服务提供者而非医疗保健专业人员。
