| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| the most sterile area to compound is | the DCA (direct compounding area) |
| in the dca, must compound under the | laminar airflow work bench |
| the clean room (separate from the rest of the pharm]) contains the | buffer, staging, & direct compound area |
| long term storage in the clean room is | not permitted |
| items that can be taken from the sterile compound to the dca are | very specific items |
| the lafw is | the laminar airflow workbench |
| the hepa's laf hood filters out | particulate matter |
| compound sterile preps (csp) that are non-hazardous are done in the | horizontal lafw |
| compound sterile preps (csp) that are hazardous (like chemo therapy drugs) are done in the | verticle lafw |
| in the horizontal lafw; the air flows | from the back of the hood, across the surface, & out to the room |
| the hepa removes | 99.97% of particles that are 0.3 microns or larger |
| the horizontal lafw is a special biological safety cabinet for | iv drug admixtures, nutrition solutions, & other aspetic parentals |
| in the verticle hepa lawf; the air flows | from the top of the hood, down through a prefilter and a hepa filter onto the work surface, & then ciculate through another hepa filter and vented outside |
| coughing & talking must be done in an area | away from the hood & workbench |
| the lawf's have routine cleaning using | 70% ipa daily |
| before entering the ante area (where the cleansing takes place) | all outerwear must be removed |
| from the ante area to the buffer area, | hand hygiene continues before glove wearing (sometimes double gloving is the last step) |
| the risk levels for contamination are | low, medium, & high |
| steriles that were handled with aseptic teqniques are included in | low level risks |
| medium risks include | multiple sterile product combined using an automated device or transference from multiple sterile containers in 1 final container like tpn's with 3+ electrolytes/vitamins |
| all high risk csp's are sterilized with a | 0.22 micron filter, autoclaving, or dry heat |
| to work in the clean room, | extensive skills & training are needed |
| also to work in the clean room, | written tests & skill assessments must be passed and additional certification may be required |
| the icc is the | infection control committee |
| the icc (within the hospital) gives | leadership with infection control policies |
| nosocomial infection is | bacterial diseases passed in hospitals from any source to the patients and others |
| nosocomial infection is also called | healthcare-associated infection |
| the icc also makes sure that the hospitals in compliance with | the joint commision, the cdc, & the usp chpt. 797 |
| the icc sets | policies & plans, monitors, evaluates, updates, and educates nosocomial survaillance |
| healthcare workers are also | treated and protected within healthcare settings |
| universal precautions are | procedures followed to prevent infections in healthcare settings |
