Acidentes com exposição a materiais biológicos no ambiente laboral dos profissionais brasileiros. Orientadora: Rayssa Horácio Lopes. 2023. Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Tecnologia em Gestão Hospitalar)-Escola de Saúde, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/56192Work accidents with exposure to biological material cover incidents occurring in various professional categories, in which workers are directly or indirectly exposed to organic materials that have the potential to contain pathogens, and represent an impact on their health. This study aims to analyze the profile of notifications of work accidents with exposure to biological material in Brazil, from 2012 to 2022. It is characterized as a descriptive study with a quantitative and documentary approach with secondary data from the Health Diseases Information System. Notification (SINAN) available on DATASUS. The results revealed a constant increase in the number of records, with the southeast region showing the highest incidence. Women between 20 and 49 years old are the most affected group, while white professionals with completed secondary education are the most reported. The "registered employees" category is the most impacted, with nursing technicians representing the most prevalent occupation. Surgical procedures, improper disposal on the floor and administration of intravenous medication are the most common accident situations. There is a lack of data on the vaccination of professionals, and more than 30% of cases have no information on the evolution or progress of notification. This study emphasizes the need for a systemic approach in the analysis of workplace accidents involving biological material, aimed at identifying risk factors and implementing preventive strategies to promote worker safety.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Acidentes biológicosAcidentes de trabalhoNotificação de acidente de trabalhoVigilância em saúde públicaBiological accidentsWork accidentsNotification of work accidentsPublic health surveillancebachelorThesisCNPQ::OUTROS::ADMINISTRACAO HOSPITALAR
