Pathogens
Abstract
Healthcare personnel have potential for exposure to blood and other infectious substances including contam-
inated medical devices. This article provides knowledge and local guideline for the management of occupational exposure to
common blood-borne pathogens, including HIV, HBV, and HCV in Siriraj hospital. Appropriate wound care, prompt incidence
report and risk assessment by physicians, post-exposure prophy-laxis with antiretroviral drugs and vaccination as indicated
can mitigate risk of acquiring infection to these pathogens.
