Resumo: This exploratory and descriptive study aimed to identify the occurrence and characteristics of work accidents (WA) with exposure to biological material among workers at a hospital in São Paulo State. Data were collected through a document survey of WA records at the hospital and further records in the electronic protocol of the Prevention System of work accidents with Biological Material in Brazilian Hospitals (REPAT). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and presented in tables and figures. In 2006, 94 accidents were notified that involved workers’ exposure to body fluids at the hospital. Considering the proportions of workers exposed, surgical technicians (18.75%), nursing assistants (7.78%) and biologists (4.76%) were the most affected professionals. Hypodermic needles caused the lesions in 71.62% of the cases. The WA were more frequent during medication administration (32.97%) and blood collection (15.95%). Partial data were available about the use of Individual Protection Equipment and the workers’ vaccination situation. The results revealed important indicators of accident characteristics and the gaps in records that are extremely important to elaborate an effective prevention program to minimize accident occurrence.

Datos recolectados mediante análisis documental de los registros de AT en el hospital y posterior registro en el protocolo electrónico de la Red de Prevención de Accidentes de Trabajo (REPAT) y tratados con uso de la estadística descriptiva y presentados en tablas y figuras. En 2006, fueron notificados 94 accidentes con exposición del trabajador a fluidos corpóreos en el hospital. Con relación a la proporcionalidad de las categorías expuestas, el instrumentador quirúrgico (18,75%), el auxiliar de enfermería (7,78%) y el biólogo (4,76%) fueron las categorías más victimadas. La aguja hipodérmica fue el agente causador de lesión en el 71,62% de los casos. Los AT ocurrieron en mayor frecuencia durante la administración de medicamentos (32,97%) y durante la recolecta de sangre (15.95%). Constatada la existencia de datos parciales del uso de Equipos de Protección Individual y la situación de vacunas de los trabajadores. Los resultados revelaron indicadores importantes de las características de los accidentes y las lagunas de registros importantes para la elaboración de n programa preventivo eficaz para minimizar la ocurrencia de los accidentes.Pesquisa exploratória descritiva com o objetivo de identificar a ocorrência e as características dos acidentes de trabalho (AT) com exposição a material biológico entre trabalhadores de um hospital do Estado de São Paulo.

Os dados foram tratados com uso da estatística descritiva e apresentados em tabelas e figuras. No ano de 2006 foram notificados 94 acidentes envolvendo exposição do trabalhador a fluidos corpóreos no hospital. Considerando-se a proporcionalidade das categorias expostas, o instrumentador cirúrgico (18,75%), o auxiliar de enfermagem (7,78%) e o biologista (4,76%) foram as categorias mais vitimadas. A agulha hipodérmica foi o agente causador de lesão em 71,62% dos casos. Os AT ocorreram em maior freqüência na administração de medicamentos (32,97%) e na coleta de sangue (15,95%). Constatou-se a existência de dados parciais quanto ao uso de Equipamentos de Proteção Individual e a situação vacinal dos trabalhadores. Os resultados revelaram indicadores importantes das características dos acidentes e as lacunas de registros extremamente importantes para a elaboração de um programa preventivo eficaz para minimizar a ocorrência dos acidentes.Faculdade de Enfermagem da UFG2017-05-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/article/view/4661610.5216/ree.v10.46616Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem; Vol. 10 No. 3 (2008)Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem; v. 10 n. 3 (2008)1518-1944reponame:Revista Eletrônica de Enfermageminstname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGCopyright (c) 2017 Revista Eletrônica de Enfermageminfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGalon, TanyseRobazzi, Maria Lúcia do Carmo CruzMarziale, Maria Helena Palucci2020-08-11T00:29:01Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/46616Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/fenPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/oairee.fen@ufg.br1518-19441518-1944opendoar:2020-08-11T00:29:01Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)false
