Topic Overview: Bloodborne pathogen exposures continue to occur among healthcare workers, despite years of attention and a variety of efforts to eliminate them. The AOHP-sponsored Exposure Survey of Trends in Occupational Practice (EXPO-S.T.O.P.) benchmarking research study (which has collected data since 2011) continues to provide new insights into this issue. This team-taught presentation will demonstrate to conference participants how research and evidence-based practice can inform their management of this crucial concern. The session will include updates on sharps and muco-cutaneous exposure incidence, expand on best practices in exposure prevention and provide a preview report on the most recent findings. This preview will include information gathered from 2013 and 2014 data, encourage continued member support, and demonstrate AOHP’s commitment to the generation of original research and position as a recognized leader in occupational health practice.
