Assessment of KAP Score for Biomedical Waste Management
Background: Bio Medical Waste Management works for effective reduction of waste volume, proper collection, segregation, transport and economical disposal of waste to prevent harm resulting from it, retrieve reusable materials.Aim: The aim of this study was to know the Knowledge, attitude, practices about BMW among Outdoor Assistants, Staff Nurses and Lab technicians. Methods: Total 147 subjects were selected randomly, a structured valid questionnaire of Bio Medical Waste related framed by us were disturbed to them. The respondents were asked to return the questionnaire immediately after answering. All the results were entered into spread excel sheet and analyzed. Results were expressed as number, percentages.Results: Lab Technicians answered better than Outdoor Attendants and Staff Nurses towards KAP of Bio Medical Waste management. Out of 54 Lab Technicians, 88.8% gave correct answers to knowledge questionnaire, 79.6% and 74% responded well to attitude and practice questionnaire. Out of 147 participants, 14.2% of Outdoor Attendants, 21.7% of Staff Nurses, 32.6% of Lab Technicians gave correct answers to knowledge questionnaire. Conclusion: It was observed that higher education and clinical rounds are needed for paramedical staffs to increase the knowledge of bio medical waste management activities. Also very important to Create awareness and enough cognizant regarding bio medical waste management to paramedics who are going to manage bio medical waste in near future.
