Abstract
OBJECTIVE: : analyze related factors and the level of adherence to standard precautions of nursing professionals from the clinical medical division of a teaching hospital. METHOD: : a quantitative, cross-sectional, analytical study was conducted with 54 nursing professionals using the Psychometric Scale of Adherence to Standard Precautions, translated and validated to Brazilian Portuguese. RESULTS: : the global score of adherence was intermediate (4.41); no statistically significant correlation was observed between adherence and professional category (p=0.404) and length of professional practice (p= 0.612). A correlation was observed between 'Washes hands after removing disposable gloves' (p=0.026) and professionals with nursing practice above 10 years. CONCLUSION: : adherence to standard precautions by the nursing team was intermediate, with no statistically significant difference in relation to the professional category and length of professional practice.
