Resumen
BARROSO, Heloísa Helena et al. Family health strategy in Brazil: microbiological analysis in the vaccination room. Rev. Enf. Ref. [online]. 2020, vol.serV, n.1, pp.e19080-e19080. ISSN 0874-0283. https://doi.org/10.12707/RIV19080.
Background: The Family Health Strategy (FHS) units are a standard in primary health care to the populations, and vaccination rooms have the highest attendance of the service. It is important to highlight that inadequate hygiene of this environment is more likely to cause infections to patients. Objective: To assess the association between the microbiological contamination and the assistance provided in the vaccination room of a Brazilian FHS unit. Methodology: Descriptive and exploratory study with sampling for three surfaces in the vaccination room. Results: The results showed 58 colony-forming units (CFU), for bacteria and fungi, in the vaccine needle, more than 300 CFU of bacteria in the samples from the fridge and table, and more than 300 CFU of fungi in the same locations. Conclusion: In this study, an inadequate sanitization was observed in the vaccination room, as shown by the microbiological growth. This suggests that inadequate hygiene impacts the care provided, so strategies are necessary for the improvement of quality and safety in the vaccination room.
