DecontaminationCâu 4 / 100
A facility engineer is rebalancing the ventilation system and asks what minimum air exchange rate the decontamination area requires. What should the technician answer?
a.2 air exchanges per hour
b.4 air exchanges per hour
c.6 air exchanges per hour
d.10 air exchanges per hour
Giải thích
A minimum of 10 air exchanges per hour is recommended for the decontamination area to dilute and remove aerosols, chemical vapors, and odors. Four air exchanges per hour is the minimum associated with sterile storage, a much lower-risk space. Two and six exchanges per hour are below the recommended level for any active reprocessing area.
