  • Title: Reducing occupational risk of HIV infection.
    Author: Gerberding JL.
    Journal: Hosp Pract (Off Ed); 1991 Jun 15; 26(6):103-10, 115-8. PubMed ID: 2040666.
    Abstract:
    At San Francisco General Hospital and many other institutions in areas of high HIV prevalence, a policy of body substance isolation has proved easier to implement than the CDC's across-the-board recommendations. Prevention of needle-stick injury and use of barrier methods of infection control are emphasized. Preoperative HIV testing is addressed.
