摘要

全世界都有证据表明，护理、医疗和牙科专业的学生在学习期间会受到利器伤害。然而，对于许多可能会遇到利器的其他医疗保健专业的学生，却缺乏相关的证据和研究。本研究旨在确定注册前医护专业学生遭受利器伤害的程度、类型和影响。我们对英国一所大学的 3372 名医护专业学生进行了在线调查。除护理、医疗和牙科专业外，还有一些医护专业的学生曾遭受过利器伤害。最常见的利器是玻璃安瓿。常见的原因是设备和不小心。一些医护学生在受到利器伤害后心理受到影响。利器伤在一些医护学生中很常见，因此有必要对这些学生群体开展更多有关利器伤的风险、安全处理、报告和预防方面的教育。

An exploration of sharps injuries within healthcare students at a UK university

There is evidence available worldwide that nursing, medical and dental students sustain sharps injuries during their programmes of study. However, there is lack of evidence and research relating to the many students of other healthcare professions who may encounter sharps instruments. The aim of the study was to identify the extent, type and impact of sharps injuries sustained by pre-registration healthcare students. An online survey was administered to 3372 healthcare students at a University in the United Kingdom. Some healthcare students other than nursing, medical and dentistry had sustained a sharps injury. The most common device involved were glass ampoules. The common causes were equipment and carelessness. Some healthcare students sustained psychological impacts following the sharps injury. Sharps injuries are common amongst some healthcare students and there is scope for more education for these groups of students relating to the risks, safe handling, reporting and prevention of sharps injuries.
