What is Needle Stick Injury Safety Guidelines about?
A needle stick injury occurs when skin is penetrated by a used hypodermic needle and can transmit bloodborne diseases like HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. Recapping needles has caused injuries, but a one-hand scoop technique reduces this risk. Anyone injured through unsafe procedures should immediately wash wounds with soap and water, and a new policy mandating safe practices through approved laboratory safety rules should be created.
