So I’m evaluating a surgical attending who got stuck with a dirty needle in the OR, and I swear when I asked her if the patient had any history of HIV or hepatitis she insisted I put both her and her surgical resident on PEP… and I’m confused, because the report said the resident was holding the needle but didn’t mention whether he was also exposed and whether it happened before or after the attending was stuck… she just gave a long, lusty sigh and said “oh he’s getting exposed later.” What in the House of God is going on in this program?
