چکیده
WHO defines Safe Injection, as an injection that does no harm to recipients; does not expose the health care worker to any risk; and does not result in waste that is dangerous for the community. In India, 300 crore injections are given in an year out of which 180 crore are unsafe; diseases transmitted through unsafe injection practices include hepatitis B: 21million, hepatitis C: 2 million, and HIV-AIDS: 3 lakhs per year. Safe–I is a joint initiative of Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) and Becton Dickison, India aimed at ensuring safety of the healthcare workers by safe biomedical waste management.
