However, accidents generated by incorrect waste management is a reality around the world. Accidents happen in different management stages, from the waste generation to its final destination, if waste is not properly managed. Therefore, this work aimed to discuss the possible problems related to the incorrect healthcare waste management, focusing on public health.

Uma pequena parte desses resíduos é considerada perigosa. No entanto, acidentes decorrentes do gerenciamento incorreto destes resíduos são uma realidade em todo o mundo. Os acidentes acontecem em diferentes etapas do gerenciamento, desde a geração dos resíduos até sua destinação final, caso não sejam gerenciados adequadamente. Portanto, o presente trabalho discutiu os problemas relacionados com a gestão incorreta dos resíduos de serviços de saúde, focando nas implicações à saúde pública. Essa mini revisão discutiu algumas das formas pelas quais o gerenciamento de resíduos pode favorecer a preservação da saúde pública e do meio ambiente, por meio de etapas como minimização, segregação e reciclagem.CDRR EditorsRepositório ComumPimenta, Ana Clara MunizPaixão, SusanaNeves, Arthur CoutoMol, Marcos Paulo Gomes2022-02-07T12:15:25Z2022-01-01T00:00:00Z2022-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.26/39219eng2525-340910.33448/rsd-v11i2.25203info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-05T15:41:40Zoai:comum.rcaap.pt:10400.26/39219Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:17:25.865197Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
