As the number of college students infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has increased significantly in China, the risk of occupational exposure to HIV among healthcare workers (HCW) in college campus clinics has also increased. Our study aimed to evaluate the awareness of HCWs in terms of preventing occupational HIV exposure in college campus clinics compared with HCWs in tertiary hospitals. This cross-sectional study was conducted in nine provinces in China from September to October 2019 (10 college campus clinics, 7 tertiary hospitals). The study's response rate was recorded to be at 87.62% (184 of 210). The knowledge score of HIV among all HCWs was determined to be generally low (67.17 ± 11.17 points), and that of college campus clinics and tertiary hospitals showed no significant difference (66.36 ± 10.36 vs. 67.63 ± 11.61 points, =0.463). Overall, HCWs in both college campus clinics and tertiary hospitals showed inadequate knowledge regarding occupational HIV exposure. Training for the prevention of occupational HIV exposure should be strengthened in both medical institutions.
由于中国大学生中感染人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）的人数显著增加，高校校园诊所医护人员（HCW）发生职业性 HIV 暴露的风险也随之增加。本研究旨在评估高校校园诊所 HCW 与三级医院 HCW 相比，在预防职业性 HIV 暴露方面的意识。本横断面研究于 2019 年 9 月至 10 月在中国九个省进行（10 所高校校园诊所，7 所三级医院）。研究的应答率记录为 87.62%（210 人中的 184 人）。所有 HCW 的 HIV 知识得分普遍较低（67.17±11.17 分），高校校园诊所和三级医院之间无显著差异（66.36±10.36 与 67.63±11.61 分，=0.463）。总体而言，高校校园诊所和三级医院的 HCW 在职业性 HIV 暴露方面的知识都明显不足。应加强两所医疗机构中职业性 HIV 暴露预防培训。
