Needless (needle free valve) to use, no time to delay !
The following situations account for the largest proportion of occupational exposure of medical staff is ( )
A. Needle stick injury
B. Sharp weapon
C. Skin and mucous membrane damage
D. Wound contamination
The above question appeared in a medical examination. You may not think that the answer is a needle stick injury.
A hospital conducted an occupational injury investigation of nearly 700 medical staff in its own hospital. This survey shows that needle stick injuries are ranked first among the work-related injuries of medical staff, with a proportion of 57.02%.
It has been confirmed that 20 pathogens can be transmitted by needle stick inoculation. The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) that may have fatal consequences after needle stick vaccination are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV). The risk of hepatitis B caused by a needle stick carrying HBV is 20%. In addition, pathogens entering the body through needle wounds can cause local or systemic infections, and any needle wounds may have the presence of tetanus bacillus.
Various protective measures are used to protect medical staff, but most of them treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. To completely reduce the probability of being injured by a needle is not to use a needle! This is how the needleless connector is called.
There are 3 styles of needle-free connectors of BQ+ Medical, covering most of the scope of clinical daily infusion. When using, there is no need to use a needle, which completely avoids the medical staff from being stabbed by the needle; the disinfection is simple and convenient; when used with the indwelling needle, it can reduce multiple blood draws and multiple injections, which brings convenience to the medical staff. After the infusion set is unplugged after the first infusion, there is no need to seal the tube with anticoagulant, which reduces the inconvenience caused by multiple tube sealing to medical staff and improves work efficiency.
