ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION:

The Center for Research and Rehabilitation of Hereditary Ataxias faces biological risks. Nevertheless a Biosafety system was not yet implemented.

OBJECTIVE:

To apply the methodology in order to evaluate these risks MATERIALS AND

METHODS:

Interview with the researchers of the center and the use of the methodology for evaluating biological risks designed for Cobos, 2009.

RESULTS:

Fifty-three biological risks were identified and evaluated, 32 as moderated, 18 as tolerable and 3 as trivial. Such classification are crucial to establish its management priorities and represent a way of surveillance in Biosafety field.

CONCLUSION:

The results of this research represent an essential factor for the Biosafety documentation development adapted to the Center and according to the legal basis in terms of biological safety in Cuba
RESUMEN

INTRODUCCIÓN:

El Centro para la Investigación y Rehabilitación de las Ataxias Hereditarias presenta riesgo biológico, sin embargo no tiene implementado un sistema de bioseguridad.

OBJETIVO:

Aplicar la metodología para evaluar este tipo de riesgo. Materiales y

MÉTODOS:

Entrevistas con los trabajadores del centro y el empleo de la metodología diseñada por Cobos, 2009.

RESULTADOS:

Cincuenta y tres riesgos biológicos fueron identificados y evaluados, de ellos 32 moderados, 18 tolerables y 3 triviales. Esta clasificación es muy importante para establecer prioridades para su gestión, además representa una manera de establecer vigilancia en bioseguridad.

CONCLUSIÓN:

Los resultados de esta investigación representan un factor esencial para el desarrollo de la documentación de bioseguridad ajustada a las características de la entidad de acuerdo a la base legal en materia de seguridad biológica en Cuba
