Needlestick organisation urges primary prevention
This article was originally published in Clinica
Executive Summary
A needlestick safety organization funded by the device industry is calling for a shift in federal health policy on how to prevent sharps injuries. The National Alliance for the Primary Prevention of Sharps Injuries (NAPPSI) contends that government officials have put too much emphasis on a secondary prevention strategy - the need to use safer needles. Instead, they argue, officials should put at least equal emphasis on primary prevention strategies by advocating technologies or practices that do not require the use of sharps in the first place.
