Sometimes!!! In the "OSHA Forms for Recording Work-related Injuries and Illnesses" last updated in 2004, it states that a recordable is any injury that is considered medical treatment beyond first aid. In the "What is first aid?" section it states that ,in bullet point 9 using an eye patch is first aid therefore non-recordable, in bullet points 10 and 11 if means of removal of a foreign body in any body part other than the eye is first aid, therefore if it is removed from the eye it is a recordable.
Chiropractic adjustment is OSHA Recordable if it used as the result of a workplace accident or injury.
Yes. Any work related injury that requires more than First Aid treatment is an OSHA recordable injury.
If it is a prescription (per OSHA regs) then yes...it is recordable.
no
Application of any medical procedure beyond first aid makes an injury OSHA recordable. So, if anesthesia was given by medical personnel in treating a workplace injury that otherwise qualifies for recordability, then yes, it is OSHA recordable.
Being under the influence of alcohol can lead to an injury, but has nothing to do with whether the injury is OSHA recordable. An injury is OSHA recordable if it occurred at or in the course of work, required medical treatment beyond first aid, resulted in lost or restricted time, etc.
If an injury requires medical care (beyond first aid) it is an OSHA recordable. And I think you mean cauterized.

In the US, use of any quantity of cyclobenzaprine is by prescription only. In the US, a job-related injury is OSHA recordable if treated with prescription medication. Therefore, if a prescription is given for cyclobenzaprine as part of the treatment of a job-related or job-exacerbated injury, then that injury or illness is OSHA recordable.
What is OSHA recordable is an injury requiring medical treatment beyond first aid. If an injection is given as part of treatment for an injury that was work related, then the injury may be OSHA recordable. However, if an injection is given as a precaution after a work related event, then the injury may not be recordable. An example might be a tetanus shot after stepping on a rusty nail at work.For any particular event, whether it is OSHA recordable should be determined by someone familiar with both the OSHA regulations on injury and illness recording, and with the specifics of the particular workplace and event. Never rely on advice in a form like this on to determine whether to enter any particular event in the OSHA Injury and Illness Log.
Using dermabond is not an injury, it is a treatment of an injury. Any treatment that goes beyond first aid would make the injury OSHA recordable, always assuming that it met the other criteria for OSHA recordability.
No medical examination is, in itself, an OSHA recordable event. If a medical examination identified an illness or injury that is found to be work-related, the illness or injury may be OSHA recordable. that depends on the specific circumstances.Never rely on information found in places like WikiAnswers for OSHA compliance. Consult a specialist who is familiar with the specifics of your workplace, the details of the injury or illness in question, and the actual OSHA regulations.
