Human immunodeficiency virus and hepatitis--implications for operating room personnel.

S Colbert1, G J Sheehan.   

Abstract

Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Hepatitis B and C are important blood borne viruses and pose occupational risks for operating room personnel. Increasing numbers of patients with these infections are appearing in Irish hospitals. In this review we describe in detail the occupational risks of these blood borne viruses for operating room personnel and how best to minimise them.
