- W4387461322 abstract "<ns4:p><ns4:bold>Background:</ns4:bold> Diabetic patients are always in contact with medical sharps, such as pen needles, lancets, and syringes. Sometimes, patients improperly dispose of these items and cause needle stick injuries. This study aimed to identify factors that improve appropriate manner in which individuals with diabetes who require insulin therapy dispose of medical sharps.</ns4:p><ns4:p> <ns4:bold>Methods:</ns4:bold> In December 2019, a cross-sectional investigation was undertaken amongst insulin therapy-dependent diabetic patients visiting Jakarta's Fatmawati General Hospital. A questionnaire was formulated to appraise medical sharps' disposal methodology. The data gathered from the said patients, including their age, gender, educational level, employment status, length of time as a diabetic, duration of insulin treatment, and receipt of formal medical training, were also recorded.</ns4:p><ns4:p> <ns4:bold>Results:</ns4:bold> Of 103 diabetic patients, 77.3% were over 50 years old, 58.3% were female, 68% were a low level of education, 74.8% were not working, 84.5% were diagnosed with diabetes for more than 5 years, 53.4% were using insulin therapy, and only 65% had got formal training on medical sharp products disposal. Nearby 83.5% still recap the pen needle insulin with the inner needle cap after injecting insulin, and 92.2% still threw medical sharps on the street when traveling outside. Approximately 81.6% of respondents stored their unused needles and lancets in a secured manner that was inaccessible to children. The practice score for proper medical sharps disposal increased from 4.5 to 6.0 as a result of formal training provided by healthcare professionals, as determined by the Mann Whitney Test (p=0.001).</ns4:p><ns4:p> <ns4:bold>Conclusions:</ns4:bold> Formal training by healthcare workers was the only factor that improved medical sharp products disposal practice among diabetic patients using insulin therapy</ns4:p>" @default.
