Evaluation of the Biosafety Training Developed in the Primary Health Care Clinical Laboratory
Journal Title: International Journal of Health & Medical Research - Year 2022, Vol 1, Issue 01
Abstract
Introduction: Biosafety constitutes a strategic approach to analyze, evaluate and manage, as well as to propose a system of actions to eradicate risks. Materials and methods: A prospective, analytical, observational study with a cross-sectional quantitative approach was carried out in three clinical laboratories of primary health care, selected by simple random sampling. The universe was made up of 37 workers, with inclusion criteria that were to be a laboratory worker and who had agreed to participate in the study and the exclusion criteria to be a student in training. The information collection instrument was the questionnaire, which contains 6 elements to evaluate related to biosafety training. The variables considered, age, sex, years of work. The variables were worked with an analytical evaluation in which percentages, mean, and Standard deviation were considered. Results: 45.9% of the workers had not received training in biosafety. The three polyclinics show a similar pattern of training (2 = 2.269, p = 0.322). After the training intervention received, 100% of the respondents evaluated it as sufficient and 89.1% above their expectations. Conclusions: Deficiencies in knowledge about biosafety were identified that were reversed with a training intervention that was considered sufficient by 100% of the respondents, therefore it is considered effective.
