Dear Terry
Thank you for access to the publication and congratulations on getting it published. I wonder if Australia will ever make progress in this area.
I also wonder if you think that the same strategies would work equally in countries like Australia and NZ where we still have no legislation mandating use of safety-engineered devices. It would be interesting to repeat the study in ANZ.
Is this paper the basis of what you will be preventing at APIC or will it be different?
Yours sincerely
Cath

WaikatoHi Cath,
I do believe the same strategies would work in Australia, and like you, I
am absolutely behind the effectiveness of mandatory legislation and am
saddened that Australia and NZ stand out as two developed countries without
such laws. My research shows Australias use of Safety Engineered Devices
(SED) is below that of U.S., Canada and even UK which only made SED
mandatory in 2013. True, SED-specific laws dont *eliminate *SI but they
significantly reduce incidence.ACIPC assisted us conduct a national survey in Australia and that is soon
to be submitted for publication. As for NZ, permission has been granted for
a national survey we are just awaiting a window to get it underway.The free PDF from JAOHP outlines *proven strategies* to reduce SI, however
our APIC paper will present the full results of the U.S. EXPO-STOP 2015
survey for the first time (our manuscript has just been accepted by AJIC).Im getting on a bit we need younger passionate colleagues take up the
gauntlet and help put SI-reduction back on the radar. We need care for our
carers.Best regards, I look forward to seeing you in Portland,
Terry

Thankyou Terry for sharing this resource,
I have experienced surprise and negativity towards investigating and expanding the use of SEDs, despite the evidence supporting them. Interesting that we haven’t embraced these products more widely in Australia.
Kind Regards
