The designed cross sectional quantitative evaluate knowledge level, attitude MSU’s Sciences students. It found (14.0%) students have experienced prick injuries before, with (80.0%) being injured while ward. Of this, (60.0%) pricked when uncapping syringes area where most took place ward due fact period were training hospitals, they mostly placed wards compared practical rooms, emergency unit laboratory. The majority sciences are aware about pathogens related NSIs. can be used guide for preparation policies regarding use sharp equipment injections clinical labs should adhered performing their lab.
