DecontaminationPregunta 7 de 100
A technician is about to begin manual cleaning at an open sink where splashing is expected. Which personal protective equipment combination is required?
a.Gloves and a surgical mask only
b.A cloth lab coat, gloves, and eyeglasses
c.Fluid-resistant gown, general-purpose utility gloves, face mask with eye protection or a full face shield, and hair covering
d.A sterile gown and sterile gloves, because the instruments are contaminated
Explicación
OSHA requires personal protective equipment that prevents blood or other potentially infectious material from reaching skin, mucous membranes, or street clothes, which at a decontamination sink means a fluid-resistant gown, heavy utility gloves, face and eye protection, and hair covering. Personal eyeglasses are not eye protection because they lack side and splash shielding. Sterile attire is irrelevant in decontamination, where the goal is worker protection, not product protection.
