摘要
目的：本研究旨在确定沙特阿拉伯达曼和吉达医护人员中锐器伤的发生率：本研究确定了沙特阿拉伯达曼和吉达医护人员（HCWs）中锐器伤（SOIs）的发生率：采用横截面设计的定量方法。采用卡方检验进行比较分析，并通过包含单变量和多变量模型的逻辑回归来确定SOIs的预测因素：达曼市和吉达市医院医护人员的 SOI 患病率为 8.40%。非沙特籍的感染率为 11.9%，而工作年限超过 15 年的感染率较低（9.9%）。性别被认为是造成 SOI 的一个重要预测因素，男性发生 SOI 的几率是女性的两倍。实验室人员的受伤率最高（29.2%；在单变量和多变量模型中，几率比分别为 8.6 和 7.2）：这些研究结果表明，达曼的高危作业人员发生 SOIs 的风险（发生率为 9%）略高于吉达的高危作业人员（发生率为 7.8%）。需要进一步开展调查，以量身定制具体的培训计划，提高医护人员的意识、安全知识和实践能力，从而减少 SOIs。
Occupational Exposure to Sharp Object Injuries Among Healthcare Workers in Dammam and Jeddah Hospitals, Saudi Arabia.
Objective: This study identify the prevalence of sharp object injuries (SOIs) among healthcare workers (HCWs) in Dammam and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Methods: Quantitative methodology using a cross-sectional design was applied. Chi-square testing was employed for comparative analyses, and logistic regression encompassing univariate and multivariate models was implemented to ascertain the predictors of SOIs.
Results: Prevalence rate of SOIs among hospital HCWs in Dammam and Jeddah cities was 8.40%. Non-Saudi nationals had a rate of 11.9%, while participants who had more than 15 years of experience had a lower rate (9.9%). Gender was identified as a significant predictor of SOIs, with males being two times more likely to experience SOIs than females. The highest rates of injuries were observed among laboratory personnel (29.2%; odds ratios of 8.6 and 7.2 in univariate and multivariate models, respectively).
Conclusion: These findings show that HCWs in Dammam have a marginally higher risk of SOIs (prevalence rate 9%) than their counterparts in Jeddah (prevalence rate 7.8%). Further investigations are needed to tailor specific training programs to increase HCWs' awareness, safety knowledge, and practices to reduce SOIs.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
