Laura Anderson1, Benjamin Weissburg2, Kelli Rogers1, Jackson Musuuza3, Nasia Safdar3, Daniel Shirley3.   

Abstract

Most recent infection outbreaks caused by unsafe injection practices in the United States have occurred in ambulatory settings. We utilized direct observation and a survey to assess injection practices at 31 clinics. Improper vial use was observed at 13 clinics (41.9%). Pharmacy support and healthcare worker education may improve injection practices. Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2017;38:614-616.
