Os que têm risco biológico são particularmente frequentes em profissionais de saúde. A sua ocorrência não é homogénea e a análise dos padrões de ocorrência pode permitir uma melhor compreensão do problema.  Objetivos: Caracterizar os padrões de incidência de AT com risco biológico, relacionando o dia da semana e hora de ocorrência, número de horas trabalhadas e a evolução ao longo dos anos.  Metodologia: Análise retrospetiva dos AT com risco biológico num Centro Hospitalar da Região Centro de Portugal. Foram consultados os processos dos AT ocorridos entre 2015 e 2019, de acordo com: género, idade, categoria profissional, dia da semana, hora da ocorrência e número de horas trabalhadas até ao momento do acidente.  Resultados: Entre 2015 e 2019 ocorreram 2213 AT, onde, 888 (40%) envolveram risco biológico. Destes, a idade média dos sinistrados foi de 38,81 +/- 10,44 anos, sendo que 80% (n=712) foram do sexo feminino. A categoria profissional mais acometida foi a dos enfermeiros com 48,4% (n=430) seguida dos médicos com 30,2% (n=268). O dia com maior número de eventos foi a segunda-feira (n=170), seguindo-se a quinta-feira (n=158). A mediana de horas trabalhadas até o acidente ocorrer foi quatro horas. Verificou-se ainda que o período da manhã foi o onde houve maior incidência de sinistros.  Conclusão: A maioria dos AT com risco biológico ocorreu no período da manhã entre as dez e as doze horas da manhã, coincidindo com o horário em que há maior volume de trabalho e maior afluência de pessoas à instituição. Constatamos também uma diminuição de sinistros ao longo dos anos, que relacionamos com o papel do Serviço de Saúde Ocupacional na análise dos AT, formação e informação dos profissionais de saúde na definição e implementação de medidas corretivas.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[ABSTRACT  Introduction: Work accidents may have a great impact on the individual, society and economy. Work accidents with biological risk are especially frequent in healthcare professionals. Its occurrence is not homogeneous. The analysis of the patterns of its occurrence can aid to a better understanding of the issue.  Objective: Characterize patterns of incidence of work accidents with biological risk, concerning weekday and hour of occurrence, number of hours worked and the evolution over the years.  Methodology: A retrospective analysis of work accidents with biological risk was carried out in a Hospital Center in the Central Region of Portugal. Work accidents occurred between 2015 and 2019 were considered and analyzed according to gender, age, professional category, day of the week, hour of the day and number of hours worked until the occurrence.  Results: Between 2015 and 2019 there were 2213 work accidents. Forty percent (888) involved biological risk. Of those, the average age of the victims was 38.81+/-10.44 years. Eighty percent 80% (n=712) were females. The most frequent professional category was nursing with 48.4% (n=430) followed by medical staff with 30.2% (n= 268). Work accidents occurred mostly on Monday (n=170), followed by Thursday (n=158). The median hours worked until the accident occurred was four hours. It was also found that the morning period had the highest incidence.  Conclusion: Work accidents occurred mostly in the morning, between ten am and twelve pm. This could be explained by the greater volume of work and greater influx of people to the institution at this period. Moreover, we observed a decrease of work accidents over the years that might be explained by the role of the Occupational Health Department in analyzing accidents, training and informing health professionals in the definition and implementation of corrective measures.]]></p></abstract>
