DecontaminationPregunta 18 de 100
Soiled instruments must be transported from the operating room to the decontamination area on a different floor. What is required?
a.An open cart covered with a clean sheet and moved by the fastest route
b.A closed or covered leak-proof container or cart labeled with a biohazard symbol or color coded
c.A rigid sterilization container with the filters removed for ventilation
d.Sealed plastic bags placed inside a food-service transport cart
Explicación
OSHA requires contaminated items to be transported in containers that prevent leakage and are labeled or color coded so anyone encountering them knows the contents are biohazardous. A cloth sheet is not leak proof and does not warn other staff. Sterilization containers are not soiled-transport containers, and mixing biohazard transport with food-service equipment is prohibited.
