Abstract
Background: Needlestick is a term that is commonly used in medical reports to describe needlestick injuries. It is common among medical and health care workers. It refers to any type of accidental skin puncture by a needle or sharp object during medical or nursing interventions. Needlestick injuries are a very common phenomenon in hospitals.
