Abstract:
- Safe injection practice guidelines were given by CDC and WHO because of varied reasons like needle stick injuries, blood stream infections, increased patient mortality and prolonged hospital stay. Unsafe injection practices lead to infections like Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HIV /AIDS. India contributes 25% to 30% of the global injection load out of which 1.89 billion were unsafe. A total of around 60,000 to 1 lakh people sustains needle stick injuries per year worldwide, and many of them are still unreported. Improper handling of sharps and poor waste disposal are the main causes for needle stick injuries. Biomedical waste management guidelines are strictly implemented in all health care settings but safe injection practices are still not adhered to
