Injection Practices

Injection practices was common medical procedure done by nurses according doctor’s prescription. In nursing process, injection practice is part of nursing intervention, but injection practices was risky for the health care workers. Needle stick injury was happened to the nurses, 18% due disposal of the needle, and 15% while draw the blood for laboratory study. Adherence to the work procedure influence by few behavior factors. Aim of research of the research were to finding out of the factors influence of adherence to safe injection practice among the nurses at healthcare center X Qatar. Type of the research was observational analytic quantities of the analytic description, using cross sectional approach. 9 variable latent with 56 variable indicator. Size of sample were 114 nurses. Data analytic with using PLS-SEM. T-statistic value on variable culture 2.94; environment 1.99; work procedure 3.81 and supervisory 3.10. T-statistic of Individual characteristic, work facility, attitude, and knowledge bellow 1.96. R2 variable adherence were showed 96.05% with Q2 87.07%. Culture, environment, work procedure and supervisory influenced of the adherence safe injection practice among the nurses. (96.05%) variable independent influence of the adherence safe injection practice among the nurses, within 87.07% showed good predicted.

Unsafe Injection

Background: Unsafe injection practice is harmful to the patients, providers and community especially in a tertiary care hospital. On this backdrop, a rapid assessment of injection practice has been conducted with aim of identifying determinants and indicators of safe injection practice. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted among 20 providers, 20 prescribers, 100 prescriptions and 120 general population by convenient sampling as per WHO from November 2016 to April 2017 in the hospital of VSS Institute of Medical Sciences & Research, Burla using interview, observation method and analysis of prescriptions. Results: Knowledge about possibility of transmission of HCV due to unsafe injection practice was 80% among providers and 40% among general population. All providers were using sterile syringe and needle though 60% of them were seen not using gloves in case IV Injection/blood transfusion and needle recapping was done by half of them 100 per cent of injection providers reported that they have access to a sharps waste disposal facility. Needle recapping was done by half of them. OT8 indicator was 26.7(%). Average number of injections per person based on the population data was 1 injection per annum. Conclusions: Unsafe injection practice has to be tackled by CME among prescribers about rationale use of injections, antibiotics from essential drug list, regular supply of equipment and hub cutter and education of providers and people about injection safety will prevent avoidable communicable diseases.

Injection Safety

Background: Injection is one of the most frequently used medical methods to introduce drugs or other substances into the body for purposes of treatment or prevention. Unsafe injection can cause adverse outcomes, such as abscess and anaphylactic shock, and increases the risk of blood-borne transmission of viruses to patients and health care workers, as well as the community. Recognizing the importance of injection safety, in 2000 the Vietnamese Ministry of Health (MOH) collaborated with the Vietnam Nurses Association to launch the “Safe injection” program throughout the country, including Hanoi. Methods: This cross-sectional study, combining quantitative and qualitative analysis, was conducted from February to August 2012 in Ha Dong General Hospital using a structured questionnaire and observation checklist. The target population of the study was 109 nurses working in clinical departments and 436 injections were observed. Results: The percentage of nurses who are familiar with injection safety standards was found to be 82.6%. The proportion of practical injections that met the 23 standards of injection safety set by the MOH amounted to 22.2%. The factors related to safe injection practice of nurses who are younger age group (OR=3.1; p<0.05) and lower amount of working years (OR=2.8; p<0.05). Conclusions: A low proportion of nurses performed correct safety injection practice, which raises the need for further training about this issue, especially among older nurses.

SUMMARYWe conducted an epidemic investigation to discover the route of transmission and the host factors of an outbreak of post-injection abscesses. Of the 2984 patients who visited a single clinic, 77 cases were identified and 208 age- and sex-matched controls were selected for analysis. Injected medications per se were not found to be responsible, and a deviation from safe injection practice suggested the likelihood of diluent contamination. Therefore the injected medications were classified according to whether there was a need for a diluent, and two medications showed a statistically significant association, i.e. injection with pheniramine [adjusted odds ratios (aOR) 5·93, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2·97–11·87] and ribostamycin (aOR 47·95, 95% CI 11·08–207·53). However, when considered concurrently, pheniramine lost statistical significance (aOR 8·71, 95% CI 0·44–171·61) suggesting that normal saline was the causative agent of this outbreak. Epidemiological evidence strongly suggested that this post-injection outbreak was caused by saline contaminated with Mycobacterium massiliense without direct microbiological evidence.

Conclusions: Despite the high level of knowledge about safety injection, a low proportion of nurses performed correct safety injection practice. Moreover, the results demonstrated that experience might not always guarantee better practice. The findings raise the need for further training about this issue, especially among older nurses.
