Resumo: | Objectives: To assess the management of health service waste generated in three public hospitals of Mato Grosso do Sul (Brazil), including qualitative and quantitative parameters. Methods: This was an observational and descriptive study. We assessed the waste management in two large public hospitals (HG1, 240 hospital beds and HG2, 343 beds) and in a small sized one (HP, 35 hospital beds). The data were collected in situ, by direct observation of the procedures for waste management and by quantifying the mass of waste generated by working sector in the three hospitals. Results: The study revealed that the internal management of waste generated in the three health care unities was not adequate, and that their workers were not trained on the proper management of waste and the use of personal protective equipment. The average rates of waste generation determined in HG1, HG2 and HP were, respectively, 4.7, 4.8 and 2.4 Kg.hospital bed-1.day-1, that fit the range of values reported in the literature. Conclusion: The detected inadequacies directly put at risk the health of workers and others who attend the three assessed hospitals and the outside comunity, which may be exposed to pathogens or toxic agents present in such waste. |

Métodos: Tratou-se de um estudo descritivo observacional. Avaliou-se o gerenciamento dos resíduos gerados em dois hospitais públicos de grande porte (HG1, 240 leitos e HG2, 343 leitos) e um de pequeno porte (HP, 35 leitos). Os dados foram obtidos in situ, por observação direta dos procedimentos relativos ao gerenciamento dos resíduos e quantificação das massas dos resíduos gerados por setor, nos três hospitais. Resultados: O estudo revelou que o gerenciamento interno dos resíduos gerados nos três estabelecimentos de saúde não era adequado, e que os seus trabalhadores não haviam sido capacitados quanto ao correto manejo dos resíduos e ao uso de equipamentos de proteção individual. As taxas médias de geração de resíduos determinadas no HG1, HG2 e HP foram, respectivamente, de 4,7, 4,8 e 2,4 Kg.leito-1.dia-1, que se ajustam a faixas de valores descritos na literatura. Conclusão: As inadequações detectadas colocam diretamente em risco a saúde dos trabalhadores e de outros frequentadores dos três hospitais avaliados, bem como pessoas da comunidade externa, que podem ser expostos a patógenos ou agentes tóxicos presentes em tais resíduos.Universidade de Fortaleza2012-01-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed Article""Avaliado pelos pares""Avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/201810.5020/2018Brazilian Journal in Health Promotion; Vol. 23 No. 3 (2010); 213-220Revista Brasileña en Promoción de la Salud; Vol. 23 Núm. 3 (2010); 213-220Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde; v. 23 n. 3 (2010); 213-2201806-1230reponame:Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúdeinstname:Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)instacron:UFORporhttps://ojs.unifor.br/RBPS/article/view/2018/2314Tivirolli, KeilaTivirolli, Soraia CristinaCorrêa da Luz, PatríciaVieira Fujino, Luana BarbieroShinzato, Marjolly PriscillaSkowronski, JosuéGomes, Ariel OrtizVasconcelos, Lúcia Helena de AndradeHess, Sônia Corinainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2012-01-18T14:17:09Zoai:ojs.ojs.unifor.br:article/2018Revistahttps://periodicos.unifor.br/RBPS/oai1806-12301806-1222opendoar:2012-01-18T14:17:09Revista Brasileira em Promoção da Saúde - Universidade de Fortaleza (Unifor)false |
