Abstrakt     The article presents the frequency of injuries with sharp objects among health care workers in the operating theatre in the Clinical Center in Ljubljana. In the first part of the article, causes and possibilities for such incidents are presented. Health workers are exposed to infection in contact with an infectious patient, his body fluids, secretions and excrements. Risk depends on the intensity and frequency of contacts, which are again dependent on the nature of work and preventive measures, proneness of a health worker to infection etc. The second part of the article describes and explains the research on incidents during the last two months in 2001. Research was carried out on 120 operating theatre nurses, anaesthesia nurses and nursing aides working in the operating theater of the Clinical Center in Ljubljana. The results of the research work show the awareness of health workers of the possibilities of injuries with sharp objects and of the fact that incident happen all the time and are not properly dealt with.
