Medical Students' Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens in the Operating Room: 15 Years Later
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2015
Abstract
We compared the rates of exposure to blood in the operating room among third-year medical students during 2005-2006 with the rates reported in a study completed at the same institution during 1990-1991. The number of medical students exposed to blood decreased from 66 (68%) of 97 students during 1990-1991 to 8 (11%) of 75 students during 2005-2006 (P < .001)
