Christina FLORES SEÑA Frine SAMALVIDES CUBA Medicina knowledge medical students Needlestick injuries universal precautions Objective: To determine the level of knowledge of blood-borne diseases and universal precautions of biosafety among medical students. Material and methods: During December 2004, medical students from fifth and seventh years were evaluated with a questionnaire about demographic data and specific information of knowledge in universal precautions and blood-borne diseases. Results: 197 questionnaires were collected, 96 belonged to medical students from fifth year and 100 belonged to interns. We found that 57% of interns obtained higher scores when compared to 23% of students (p<0.001) with a prevalence ratio of 1,79 (CI: 1.4 – 2.3). We also found that most of the students referring needlestick injuries (57%) had higher scores when compared with those who did not refer needlestick injuries (28%), however, no relationship was found between the higher score in our questionnaire with the academic rank. Conclusions: Most of the interns proved higher knowledge about biosafety and universal precautions, we also observed a relationship between higher scores and the prior occurrence of needlestick injuries. We demonstrated that, being student predicts poor knowledge about biosafety compared to being intern. 2005 artículo científico 1018-130X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=338029549005 es http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3380 Revista Médica Herediana application/pdf Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia Revista Médica Herediana (Perú) Num.4 Vol.16 |
