Prep, Packaging & StoragePregunta 86 de 100
Sterile packages are being placed on open shelving. What clearances should be maintained?
a.At least 2 inches from the floor, 8 inches from the ceiling, and 18 inches from outside walls
b.At least 8 to 10 inches from the floor, 18 inches from sprinkler heads, and about 2 inches from outside walls
c.Flush to the wall to maximize usable shelf depth, with no floor clearance requirement
d.At least 24 inches from the floor and 24 inches from the ceiling
Explicación
Bottom shelves are raised 8 to 10 inches off the floor so wet mopping and floor contamination do not reach packages, 18 inches of clearance below sprinkler heads preserves fire suppression coverage, and roughly 2 inches from outside walls prevents condensation from wall surfaces reaching the packaging. The reversed and oversized figures in the other options do not match recognized practice and would either compromise fire protection or waste storage capacity without benefit.
