Résumé
"The aim of this study was to applythe Health Belief Model to explain the adherence to the recommendation not to recap needles by den - tists and dental assistants of the public health sys - tem in a municipality in the State of São Paulo. A questionnaire validated and adapted for the oral health area was used, which included variables related to the frequency of recapping and health beliefs using Likert-type scales. The relationship between beliefs and adherence to the recommen - dation not to recap needles was obtained by re - gression analysis. Of all the professionals in this study (n=79), the majority (83.5%) reported re - capping needles at least once in the last month. Through regression analysis, it was observed that the relationship between the beliefs described by the model and the attitude whether or not to fol - low the recommendation not to recap needles was explained by a lower perception of psychological barriers and a greater perception of stimuli not to recap needles. The conclusion reached is that the acceptance of recommendations to prevent work - ing accidents with biological material was ex - plained by some dimensions of the Health Belief Model, enabling discussion about reformulation of training offered to professionals of the public health system."
