PR Study: Safety Engineered Devices (USA)

The peer reviewed study published in the Association of Occupational Health Professionals in Healthcare, took a sample of 5 Florida healthcare facilities’ sharps containers. The contents of the sharps containers were decanted, categorised and counted to identify the proportion of hollow-bore Safety Engineered Devices (SED) among the sharps present, and the proportion of SED correctly activated. This short summary of the original publication outlines the results.
