Abstract
Acil Servis (AS) çalışanları Delici/Kesici Alet Yaralanması (DKAY) sonucunda bulaşıcı hastalık riskiyle karşılaşmaktadırlar. Bu çalışmada İlimizde yer alan hastanelerdeki AS çalışanlarının yaralanmaları ve önleme yöntemlerinin artırılması amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma anket yöntemiyle yapıldı. İl içerisindeki hastanelerde çalışan; Acil Tıp Uzmanı (ATU), Acil Tıp Araştırma (ATA) Görevlisi, Pratisyen Hekim, HemşireAcil Tıp Teknisyeni (ATT)-Paramedik, Acil Personeli, Temizlik Personeli dahil edilmiştir. Delici/Kesici aletler; enjektör iğnesi, sütür iğnesi, ampul, flakon, bistüri ve diğer şeklinde tanımlanmıştır. Hazırlanan anket formu aracılığıyla AS sağlık çalışanlarına maruz kaldıkları DKAY ile ilgili ayrıntılı sorgulama yapılmış ve son olarak önerileri alınmıştır. Çalışmaya 183 kadın ve 143 erkek olmak üzere toplam 326 kişi katıldı ve cinsiyet dağılımına göre hastaneler arasında fark saptanmadı (p>0.05). En sık yaralanan grubun Hemşire-ATT-Paramedik (%58.1) olduğu görüldü. Yaralanmalara en çok neden olan alet enjektör iğnesi iken, yaralanmaların çoğunlukla hafta içi ve sabah saatlerinde olduğu görüldü. Sonuç olarak, sağlık çalışanlarının DKAY sıklığı özellikle AS’lerde yüksek olup; çalışma koşullarının düzeltilmesi, koruyucu önlemlerin alınmasıyla bu yaralanmaların sayısının azaltılabileceği düşüncesindeyiz.
