Active clinical trials for "Needlestick Injuries"

Evaluate the efficiency of adopting the automated needle processing system by evaluating efficiency, usability and safety when using ANDY(Automatic Needle Destroyer). Install ANDY(Automatic Needle Destroyer) in the ER, and evaluate the system by comparing the efficiency of the work, usability, actual decrease ratio of needlestick injury between using the automated needle processing system and not using it.

This study investigates the impact of mindfulness-based intervention for children undergoing a blood-draw and their accompanying parent on (a) child ratings of pain and fear, (b) parent and child ratings of parent distress, and (c) parent perceptions of child pain and fear. Half of the parent-child pairs will receive the mindfulness-based intervention, while half will receive an unfocused-attention task to serve as a comparison with no active component.

A simulated clinical use testing to evaluate the Medlance Plus and myLance sharps injury prevention feature in accordance with the FDA's guidance on medical devices with sharps injury prevention features.

This study was planned to evaluate the effect of two different non-pharmacologic pain relief methods (swaddling and maternal holding) on healthy term newborn's pain levels during heel stick. Study hypotheses are; Hypothesis 1. Swaddling is effective at relieving pain due to heel stick procedures in newborns. Hypothesis 2. Maternal holding is effective at relieving pain due to heel stick in newborns. Hypothesis 3. Maternal holding is more effective than swaddling at relieving pain due to heel stick in newborns.

The objective of this study was to determine if blunt needle use during cesarean section closure protects against glove perforation and percutaneous injury to the surgeon and surgical assistant. A secondary objective was to determine physician satisfaction with blunt needles during the surgery.

The hypothesis for this study is that use of blunt tipped needles used during the repair of an episiotomy (tear in the vagina after childbirth) will result in fewer needlestick injuries to the surgeon.

The purpose of this prospective cohort survey study is to further explore the incidence of adverse events with dry needling by physical therapists - as well as any differences or similarities between patient-reported vs therapist-reported incidence of AEs.
