Narażenie pracowników opieki zdrowotnej na patogeny krwiopochodne
Healthcare workers’ exposure to hematogenous pathogens

Summary/Abstract: Healthcare workers’ punctures and cuts with sharp tools may pose a serious risk of transmission of blood-borne pathogens (HBV Hepatitis B Virus, HCV Hepatitis C Virus and HIV) from infected patients. Appropriate legal regulations, the use of safe and easy-to-use medical equipment, training and post-exposure management procedures coming into effect after the contact with HBV, HCV, HIV as well as other infectious diseases, can greatly reduce the level of occupational risk of healthcare workers.
