In Washington, Labor & Industries (L&I) estimates ~44,000 needlestick injuries per year By Dec, 31, 2000, CDC reports: 57 health care workers have seroconverted following occupational exposure to HIV – 25 have developed AIDS – 3 were lab workers working with concentrated virus – Percutaneous exposure was the most common route Principal investigators (PIs)/supervisors are responsible for assessing activities in the workplace and determining if employees have a potential for occupational exposure.

Fragile – lives only a few hours outside the body Causes Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) AIDS allows development of opportunistic disease, which ultimately causes death. A flu-like illness can occur 1-6 weeks after exposure to the virus: -Fever, sweats, malaise, muscle pains, nausea, diarrhea 1. Injury from contaminated needlesticks and/or sharps 2. Eye and mucous membrane exposure 3. Open wound contamination (cut, dermatitis, psoriasis) Enlarged lymph nodes, mycological oral infections, fatigue, weight loss Symptom-free period of 5-10 years can occur EH&S UW Bloodborne Pathogen Training 25 EH&S Must include BBP standard (WA State Rule) online at: http://www.lni.wa.gov/wisha/Rules/ bbpathogens/default.htm Biosafety Manual contains UW Core ECP, in Appendix A See online at: 1.

There are three differences for BSC work at the UW. Important: Sharps are not prohibited in BSCs at the UW. Water can be used after the decontaminating bleach and is recommended by Baker for their BSCs. Good hand washing is more about sudsing soap and scrubbing for at least 20 seconds than the use of germicidal soap.
