BACKGROUND
There is evidence available worldwide that nursing, medical and dental students sustain sharps injuries during their programmes of study. However, there is lack of evidence and research relating to the many students of other healthcare professions who may encounter sharps instruments.
AIM/OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to identify the extent, type and impact of sharps injuries sustained by pre-registration healthcare students.
METHODS
An online survey was administered to 3372 healthcare students at a University in the United Kingdom.
FINDINGS/RESULTS: Some healthcare students other than nursing, medical and dentistry had sustained a sharps injury. The most common device involved were glass ampoules. The common causes were equipment and carelessness. Some healthcare students sustained psychological impacts following the sharps injury.
DISCUSSION
Sharps injuries are common amongst some healthcare students and there is scope for more education for these groups of students relating to the risks, safe handling, reporting and prevention of sharps injuries.
背景
全球范围内有证据表明，护理、医学和牙科专业的学生在学习期间会遭受锐器伤。然而，对于其他可能接触锐器的众多医疗保健专业学生，缺乏相关证据和研究。
目的
本研究的目的是确定预注册医疗保健专业学生遭受锐器伤的程度、类型及影响。
方法
对英国一所大学的3372名医疗保健专业学生进行了在线调查。
结果
除护理、医学和牙科专业外，一些医疗保健专业的学生也遭受过锐器伤。涉及的最常见器械是玻璃安瓿。常见原因是设备问题和粗心大意。一些医疗保健专业学生在遭受锐器伤后受到了心理影响。
讨论
锐器伤在一些医疗保健专业学生中很常见，对于这些学生群体，在锐器伤的风险、安全处理、报告和预防方面有必要开展更多教育。
