The aim of this study was to investigate the use of basic safety measures in preventing infections and the management of the residues in the material collected for Papanicolaou exam.

Such nurses did not use to wash their hands during the Papanicolaou exam, however, the latex gloves were guaranteed in all divisions and they were also used in 100% of the exams. The possessing of contaminated reusable items and managing of infected residuals showed to be inappropriate to what we recommend to be implanted according to the Resolution of the Diretoria Colegiada (RDC number 306/2004) of the National Agency of Sanita­tion Surveillance.
