Emergency Service (AS) employees are at risk of infectious diseases as a result of Delici / Cutting Instruments Injury (DKAY). This study is aimed at increasing the injuries and methods of prevention of AS employees in the hospitals in our country. The research was conducted by the method of survey. Working in hospitals within the province; Emergency Medical Specialist (ATU), Emergency Medical Research (ATA) Officer, Practitioner Doctor, Nursing- Emergency Medical Technician (ATT)-Paramedic, Emergency Staff, Cleaning Staff included. Cutting/cutting tools are defined in the form of the injector injection, cutting injection, lamp, bottle, bistro and others. Through the prepared survey form, a detailed questionnaire on the DKAY they were exposed to AS health workers was made and finally the recommendations were received. The study included a total of 326 people, including 183 women and 143 men, and there was no difference between hospitals according to gender distribution (p>0.05). The most frequently injured group was Nurses-ATT-Paramedik (58.1%). While the injector injection is the tool that causes many injuries, injuries were mostly seen during the week and in the morning hours. As a result, the frequency of DKAY of health workers is high especially in AS; we believe that the improvement of working conditions and the adoption of protective measures can reduce the number of these injuries.
