Objective To enhance the management of occupational exposure, improve post-exposure reporting, promote post-exposure follow-up, reduce blood-borne infections caused by exposure, and ensure occupational safety among medical staff by using comprehensive measures based on nosocomial infection management system.Methods All the reported cases of occupational exposure were retrospectively collected from August 2012 to July 2018. The cases were divided into the control group (from August 2012 to July 2015) in which the data were reported in paper, and the observation group (from August 2015 to July 2018) in which the data were reported by nosocomial infection management system. The report and follow up results of occupational exposure in the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results After three years application of nosocomial infection management system, the occupational exposure report increased 95.8% (increased from 16.7 cases per year to 32.7 cases per year); the follow-up ratio of occupational exposure after one month,3 months and 6 months increased from 65.0% to 93.3% (χ2=15.184, P<0.001), 45.0% to 73.3% (χ2=9.033, P=0.003), and 25.0% to 53.3% (χ2=8.522, P=0.004), respectively.Conclusion Application of nosocomial infection management system can increase the report of occupational exposure and the follow-up ratio of occupational exposure significantly.
