Opis:
People are special. The importance and need for the research and development into medical and healthcare devices can never be overstated. In the 21st century, medical and healthcare devices play a more vital role in our lives than ever before. A wide range of materials are being used for producing numerous medical and healthcare devices for a variety of end use. In this manuscript, historical development of wound care dressings and products are reviewed. The characteristics and requirements of modern wound dressings are summarized. A core part is devoted to the description of the materials used in medical and healthcare devices. Selected synthetic polymers are listed with their applications in medical and healthcare devices. The advantages and limitations of fibres, metals, ceramics and composites are denoted. Textile structures are highlighted with their applications in medical and healthcare devices.

Opis:
Objectives In Poland, there are numerous cases of injuries caused by sharp instruments annually, still significantly more than in other European Union countries. The aim of this study was to analyze work-related injuries among healthcare workers in a selected hospital before and after the implementation of safety-engineered devices (SED). Material and Methods Retrospective analysis of medical documentation regarding occupational needlestick and sharps injuries (NSSI) in a tertiary referral surgical hospital in 1998–2018. The study group consisted of nurses and doctors who had been injured and reported the incident. The frequency of injury reports, injury rate, and characterization of circumstances surrounding NSSI are presented. Results Over the period of 20 years, a total of 257 NSSI incidents were reported. The average injury rate was statistically significant for nurses (p = 0.004) and was higher before the introduction of SED. Moreover, the number of injuries among nurses showed a downward trend during the study period. However, for doctors, there was no statistically significant difference in the median puncture rate (p = 0.099), and the number of injuries showed an increasing trend. Conclusions In this study, the authors’ have demonstrated not only the occurrence of injuries and punctures in the daily work of medical personnel but also the potential for their reduction through the use of safety equipment at every workstation where healthcare services are provided using sharp medical instruments.
