Abstract

Background and Objectives: Health care workers, exposed to blood, blood products and certain body fluids, are at risk for acquiring hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections; therefore, they should routinely use UNIVERSAL PRECAUTIONS to prevent skin and mucous-membrane exposure when they are in contact with blood or certain other body fluids. Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study and includes 60 OR personnel from Sina Hospital, Tabriz University of medical sciences. Results: This study shows that 54.9% of OR personnel use these precautions "poorly" and 54.1% "well" for percutaneous, and 51.7% of them "poorly" and 48.3% "well" for mucocutaneous BLOOD CONTACT. The surgical assistants, scrub nurses and those working in elective procedures or in day shifts, use these precautions more effectively than others (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study suggests that it is necessary to evaluate other medical centers in this regard, and to increase application of these precautions with education and continuous monitoring.
