In this paper we have studied the characteristics of the phenomenon in a group of nursing school students of one University of the Lazio. The results show an elevated frequency of the phenomenon, characterized exclusively from biological accidents and the necessity to plan preventive measures, insisting, mainly on needles and sharps manipulation.
