Prep, Packaging & Storage第 80 / 100 题
An instrument set is being assembled. Which practice supports effective sterilization and safe handling?
a.Lock all ratcheted instruments closed so they do not shift in the tray
b.Nest all concave items facing upward so they hold their position
c.Stack heavy retractors on top of delicate microsurgical instruments to keep them from moving
d.Place hinged instruments open on a stringer, put heavy items on the bottom, protect delicate tips, and keep total set weight within recommended limits, commonly about 25 pounds
解析
Correct assembly keeps hinged instruments open so steam reaches mating surfaces, distributes weight so delicate items are not crushed, and limits set weight to reduce wet packs and ergonomic injury. Concave items are positioned so condensate can drain rather than pool. Closed ratchets shield surfaces from sterilant, and stacking heavy instruments over delicate ones damages them and blocks steam.
