2 Romanian Nursing Association RNA was founded in RNA joined to ICN for second time first time - London, 1937 European Federation of Nurses (EFN) Nursing and Midwifery Forum EFNNMA (WHO) The RNA goals: To improve quality nursing services in order to protect the Public health, to protect patients; To protect nurses and nursing becoming a VOICE for both.
3 National Legislation Order no. 994 of August 10, 2004 the approval of the surveillance and control of nosocomial infections in healt units : Annex V- Universal Precaution PU; Order 916 of July 27, 2006 (Order 916/2006) the approval of the surveillance, prevention and control of nosocomial infections in health units: Annex IV - Universal Precaution PU; Annex V - METHODOLOGY FOR SURVEILLANCE AND CONTROL OF ACCIDENTS WITH EXPOSURE TO BIOLOGICAL PRODUCTS FROM STAFF TO WORK IN THE FIELD OF HEALTH - 1. Justification: Currently, in Romania they are not collected sufficient information to evaluate risk exposure and to estimate the incidence of infection after exposure to blood and biological products to staff working in healthcare.
4 Reporting of occupational exposure CNLAS (Anti AIDS Commission of the Ministry of Health) collected in : Numar expuneri profesionale Numar profilaxii post-expunere profesionala TOTAL Occupational groups exposed to risk of infection accidents At the Infectious Diseases Institute "Prof. Dr. Matei Bals" (IBI) were recorded 37 cases in 2003 and 55 in For all these cases to apply the Protocol on Prevention Professional Post-exposure prophylaxis (PPEP), including hepatitis B vaccination and chemoprophylaxis with antiretroviral
5 Health Professionals exposed to risk of infection Institute of Infectious Diseases "Prof. Dr. Matei Bals" Categoria profesionala Numar cazuri/expuneri Procent (%) medic chirurg 3 3,3 medic stomatolog 1 1,1 medic alte specialitati 32 34,8 medic rezident 8 8,7 student 7 7,6 student stomatolog 5 5,4 asistenta medicala 29 31,5 infirmiera 2 2,2 tehnician dentar 1 1,1 ingrijitoare 1 1,1 brancardier 2 2,2 voluntar 1 1,1 TOTAL
6 RNA Project The project Injections without risks was developed by RNA in 1996 Workshop Nosocomial infection, ICN and 3M 1999, train of trainers.
7 Current situation in nursing practice In some workplaces there are not enough nurses New, migration of nurses from public to private sectors (Bucharest) There are not enough material resources or some time lack, and patients need to buy its (syringes, tubes for blood tests, medicament, gloves). Nurses buy their equipment (uniforms and clean them at home) Are not good working conditions in some places Devices are not always safe
8 Sharps Injuries are not reported by nurses Unfortunately, injuries are not reported, while at the level of the hospital there are: epidemiological department, occupational medicine office, medical staff. Example: last year in the Emergency Hospital where worked 3017 health workers were reported three cases of sharps injuries. The doctors from occupational medicine reccommended them to make some blood tests, and to come back after six month for a new evaluation. Nurses did not follow the reccommendation and have not return to the occupational medicine cabinet.
9 What is needed? Information and Awareness Raising Research and System of reporting Training nurse trainers Developing practical teaching and learning materials Continue education for new nurses Developing practical guide Training students in nursing school
10 What is needed? Sufficient resources Safe devices Good working condition Social Cohesion Funds to implement the DIR.2010/32/EU
11 EU Sharps Injuries Implementation Guidance RNA informed nurses about the DIR. 2010/32/EU Translation in Romanian language EU Sharps Injuries Implementation Guidance RNA informed Nursing Association from Republica Moldova about the DIR. 2010/32/EU and sent it, also RNA sent the translation of the Implementation Guidance in Romanian langage Published the EU Sharps Injuries Implementation Guidance in the number two of our revue called Nursing"
