 AB    The development of recommendations to manage the risk of bloodborne
       pathogen transmission from health-care workers to patients during
       invasive procedures has been difficult, primarily because of the
       limitations of available scientific data. Ultimately, both health-care
       workers and patients will be protected best by compliance with infection
       control precautions and by development of new instruments, protective
       equipment, and techniques that reduce the likelihood of intraoperative
       blood exposure without adversely affecting patient care.
