Needlestick and sharps injuries among dental healthcare workers at a university hospital
2014, Journal of the Formosan Medical AssociationCitation Excerpt :The reported risks of contracting infections after sustaining pathogen-positive needlestick/sharp injuries (NSI) were 0.3% for HIV,4 6.0%–30.0% for HBV,5 and 0%–10.0% for HCV.2,6–8 Previous studies showed that in the population of Taiwan the seropositivity rates for HBsAg9 and HCV antibody10 were 15%–21% and 2.5% respectively. In fact, contraction of HBV or HCV from work-related NSI is one of the most common occupational hazards among healthcare workers in Taiwan.11–13
