We conducted a questionnaire survey of 695 interns and residents working in two university hospitals and one general hospital in Tague city. Four hundred and forty three of those questioned(63.7 %) fully responded.RESULTS:
Two hundred of the respondents(45.1 %) suffered at least one injury. Respondents suffered an average of 1.8 injuries. 96.5 % of interns, 40.6 % of surgical residents and 34.4 % of non-surgical residents suffered at least one injury. According to multiple logistic regression, Intern status and an increased amount of working time is associated with high risk of needle stick injury.CONCLUSIONS:
