With the purpose of better delineating contributing factors for a ubiquitous occupational injury among healthcare workers, we undertook a two-component study of SNSIs among physician residents and nurses at an academic medical center.Methods: Retrospective injury data among nurses (N=58) and medical residents (N=63) were analyzed. A 35-item cross-sectional survey was used to evaluate the prevalence, non-reporting, and contributing factors among physician residents who sustained a SNSI (N=76).Results: Physician residents had a rate of injury that was 11.0 SNSIs/100 medical residents/year compared to nurses at 3.2 SNSIs/100 nurses/year; a rate three-fold higher. Physician residents in neurosurgery, otolaryngology, OB/GYN, and general surgery reported the highest rates of injury.Conclusions: Our results underscore the need for a more comprehensive study to better identify injury drivers specific to the operating room environment.","PeriodicalId":521042,"journal":{"name":"Journal of hospital administration","volume":"14 1","pages":"34-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12416251/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145031316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
