Safety & Infection ControlCâu 40 / 100
A technician must enter the room of a patient with active pulmonary tuberculosis, which spreads by airborne transmission. Which respiratory protection is required?
a.A standard surgical mask
b.No mask if staying near the door
c.A cloth face covering
d.A fit-tested N95 respirator or higher
Giải thích
Airborne precautions for tuberculosis require a fit-tested N95 respirator or higher-level respirator because the tiny particles remain suspended in the air. The patient is placed in an airborne infection isolation (negative pressure) room with the door kept closed. A standard surgical mask does not filter these small airborne particles.
