Abstract:
Objective To investigate the methods in improving connection and separation the butterfly wing-shaped needles of intravenous infusion port, and to design safety protection equipment to separate the butterfly wing-shaped needles to reduce the incidence of needle stick injury.
Methods A self-made questionnaire was used to collect data on the occurrence of needle stick injuries before and after improved connection and separation the butterfly wing-shaped needles, which was performed in 64 nurses of 3 wards, and the data was statistically analyzed.
Results The incidences of needle stick injury in nurses and patients after improvement were significantly reduced (P < 0.01).
Conclusion The improvement of the technique of connecting the butterfly needle of the intravenous infusion port, designing new safety protection equipment, and further strengthening the occupational safety system can reduce the incidence of needle stick injury in the operation and protect the safety of clinical nursing staff.
