[Article in Spanish]

Departamento de Enfermagem, Faculdade de Ciências Médicas (FCM), Universidade Estadual de Campinas-UNICAMP.

An updating program on measures of universal precautions (M.U.P.) was developed at the Center of Whole Care of Woman's Health (Centro de Atenção Integral à Saúde da Mulher-CAISM). These measures and the procedures in the case of work accident were published in a booklet. First, servants should be aware of the matter of stress and its influence on the quality of life. Then, updating was carried through encouraging the reflection on the consequences of the non-adoption of M.U.P. The answers to 286 pre-tests and 242 post-tests were analyzed and the results showed a significantly higher index of correct answers (p < 0.01), mainly regarding the appropriate use of glove.
