Acidente de trabalho na equipe multiprofissional do atendimento pré hospitalar móvel: uma perspectiva de vigilância em saúde

Abstract

The research aimed to describe the occurrence of work accidents in the SAMU 192 multiprofessional team from Salvador-BA in the period from 2009 to 2018. This is a study of the series of work accident notifications in the SAMU 192 multiprofessional team in Salvador- BA made available by the Human Resources Information System of the Service itself and of the Municipal Medical Board. The results were presented through an article in which 210 cases of occupational accidents were identified in the investigated period. There was a predominance of accidents among female professionals. There was a higher frequency of accidents among nursing technicians. Most of the accidents were of the mechanical trauma type. The period of removal of workers from work activities and the recurrence of accidents were identified. It was possible to describe that the indicators of incidence of work accidents signal the tendency of growth of this problem in the mobile prehospital environment and reflect the constant changes in the organization and in the work processes. Accident notification is closely related to the effectiveness of Occupational Health Surveillance. Surveillance studies point to the need to identify risks, create protocols and formulate public policies that determine the prevention, promotion and health care of workers who perform their work activities at SAMU 192.
