Occupational exposure to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis, and other bloodborne pathogens concerns all health care workers, especially those in high-risk clinical settings such as the emergency room, operating room, intravenous therapy department, etc. In response to the increased attention to needlestick injuries in the workplace, hospitals are adopting a more proactive approach to establishing precautions to eliminate this occupational hazard. Many technologies to address the situation are available today, but most offer only a partial solution. The need for a comprehensive needleless IV delivery system recently sparked a collaboration between the IV therapy coordinator and a manufacturer's representative (Abbott Laboratories) that resulted in a new product design that was recently implemented house wide at our two hospitals.
职业暴露于人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)、肝炎病毒及其他血源性病原体是所有医护人员都关心的问题,尤其是那些在急诊室、手术室、静脉治疗科等高风险临床环境中的医护人员。为应对工作场所针刺伤问题日益受到关注的情况,医院正采取更积极主动的方法来制定预防措施,以消除这种职业危害。如今有许多技术可用于解决这一问题,但大多数都只是部分解决方案。对一种全面的无针静脉输液系统的需求,最近促使静脉治疗协调员与一家制造商代表(雅培实验室)展开合作,最终设计出了一种新产品,并于近期在我们两家医院全面投入使用。
