Risks of medical work


Biological risks 


And here we show the vital nature of the risk from the viewpoint of occupational safety in a simple and will not expand out of the door of medical specialization, where some believe may be contaminated by the basic bio-medical work, but only the fact that there are other sources of pollution. Valverosat and bacteria that can be transmitted through:
1)  infected patients and contaminated instruments
2) contaminated food
3) place contaminated

Risks of medical work:

Exposure to waste and medical supplies could result in serious diseases and injuries because there are several risks that lead to them:


1- 
 and the presence of microbes highly contagious and deadly as he entered the door of the vital risks (biological)


 2-
 and the presence of highly toxic to human cells caused her death or mutations, drugs and dangerous chemicals in the door as he entered the chemical risk
 3-
 and the presence of deadly radioactive material in the door as he entered the risk of physical (radiation)
 4-

 sharp and definite articles of human tissue in the door as he entered the risks of kit and tools


Exposed workers in the field of medical work of the biological risk in two main ways:


1- 
 acupuncture needles and sharps contaminated:
We do not examine here the impact of these medical instruments and injuries Kjerouh normal, but the fact that most of the injuries that are considered satisfactory by throwing needles and syringes in garbage bags and black Here we must apply the classification system for medical waste and non-medical waste is divided as follows:
 general waste such as food scraps, paper, plastic boxes, cans, paper towel or anything similar is contaminated with remnants of the patients, collected and placed in the bags of their own.§
 - medical waste or waste resulting from the care of patients from their various departments Ksalat operations and recovery rooms and hospital wards and laboratories specialized analyzes of all kinds, placed in the bags of their own and are collected and handled with extreme caution.§
 - waste materials, sharp needle, syringes, scalpels and broken glass in both cases, contaminated and uncontaminated placed in boxes, not bags.§



2 -

 Direct infection by breathing: This is very unlikely, but with the medical staff must wear gloves and masks when dealing with patients.


Normal business risks:


Worker can be exposed to contamination through:
Puncture wounds from sharp instruments of labor which is usually contaminated
1. Eating in places contaminated hands or eating contaminated
2. Infection in the bathrooms and laundry used by a patient of a factor has not been cleaned well
Pollution of water sources and reservoirs is used for clean drinking or cleaning
Other business risks:


Workers cleaning: treat workers cleaning bags with trash and waste, which facilitates the process of contracting bacterial as well as to the possibility of infected wounds contaminated by the presence of remnants of glass and sharps in the garbage, making society as a whole is called upon to protect them after placing the broken glass and sharps in trash bag until after the roll of those substances are prevent injuries



Workers stations, sewage treatment:


Treated wastewater in many ways, including:
 Physical deposition such as by gravity or pump gas Alttyish inside this water through the filter or grille bars, simplified or otherwise§

 - Chemotherapy: add some material to get to a certain degree of acidity, or assist in the deposition or the work of disinfection or coagulation or other purposes.§

 - biological: the reactors are designed to speed up the process of destroying pollutants and convert them to formats easier and simpler.§ It is based on speed work aerobic and anaerobic bacteria or optional for cutting and redemption of contaminated vehicles. Treatment methods may be an initial "reduce the likelihood of contamination of organic" or secondary "elements of reducing the quantities of phosphorus and nitrogen," or third "includes evaluation or filtering minute"



The methods used in general in the first and second processing stations in the Arab world.
The risks vary vital in the treatment plants:
1 - 
germs and viruses spread through the air in a relatively narrow area, which makes all workers exposed to infection by breathing.
2- 
 the possibility of contamination of wounds from contaminated water:
 liquidation process (and are usually the first stage to rid the water of the large waste) through the bars require clean up these bars constantly exposing workers to contaminated wounds to the presence of sharp objects in the water.§
 - sedimentation basins containing the pumps and machinery moving requires the entry of workers into these basins by boat to fix the fault and these machines are contaminated§
.
3-
 Workers veterinary centers:

Is medical care, veterinary and one of the professions where it is practiced Workers Veterinarians their medical diagnosis and treatment of infected animals, and beyond their role to the research work and on the use of animals as models of laboratory experimental. In all cases, you may experience these veterinarians as a result of their work to numerous risks and factors exposed workers, veterinary centers and directly to the infection, whether due to infectious Palmspbat dealing directly with the animals or by dealing with the samples and animal remains in the laboratory ..
