Abstract

Introduction: Health care workers are always at risk of needle INJURIES in hospitals. This might be a way for transmission of HEPATITIS Band C and HIV to these individuals. So, PREVENTION (both before and after the accident) is very important. The aim of this study is to evaluate these activities in hospitals in Jahrom, Iran.Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study in which the files of 54 health care workers with needle INJURIES in 2006 are evaluated Data were analyzed by spss version 11.5.Results: 66.7% of the files were related to females. In 85.2% of them PREVENTIONal procedures were performed in less than 24 hours time and the mean time for starting these actions was 5 hours and 7 minutes. In 50% of the cases, the source of the needle's was clear, and only 44.4% of the cases were completely followed.Conclusion: According to the results of this study, infection control centers based in hospitals have taken necessary and timely measures.
