Hands-Free Technique: Preventing Occupational Exposure during Surgery
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Occupational exposure to blood borne pathogens has led to HBV, HCV and HIV infections among surgeons, nurses and other operating room (OR) personnel and, to a lesser degree, patients (Ross et al 2000, The incident investigation teams and others 1997). Of seven OR studies in which an observer or circulating nurse recorded exposures, there was a percuataneous injury in 1.7-15% of all surgeries, and a mucocutaneous contamination in 6.2-50% of all surgeries. (Gerberding et al 1990, Panlilio et al 1991, Popejoy & Fry 1991, Quebbeman et al 1991, Tokars et al 1992, Lynch & White 1993, Stringer, Infante-Rivard & Hanley 2002). Surgeons and residents usually sustained the greatest number of percutaneous and other exposures during surgery.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
