  • Title: A sharper point on using safer needles.
    Author: Hudson T.
    Journal: Hosp Health Netw; 1999 Sep; 73(9):46-8, 50. PubMed ID: 10514800.
    Abstract:
    National legislation is just one sign of changing attitudes about safety needles. Fifteen states are considering similar bills; five already have passed such laws. OSHA also says it will put needlestick injuries on its agenda this fall. Yet if needlesticks and efforts to prevent them are nothing new, what's causing this change of heart? Two things: improved technology and media attention.
