Gown, BLANK, mask, and proper hand-washing are all part of what procedures?

  1. Surgical

  2. PPE or Barrier protection

  3. Clinical

  4. Sanitization

The correct answer is: PPE or Barrier protection

These four items, although not listed in order are all part of the PPE (personal protective equipment) or Barrier protection. Out of the four options, only PPE or Barrier protection refers to the combination of gown, mask, and proper hand-washing. Surgical procedures only encompass the use of a gown and mask, but not hand-washing. Clinical procedures may involve the use of a gown, but not necessarily a mask or hand-washing. Sanitization mainly deals with keeping a clean and sterile environment, but does not involve the use of protective gear like gowns and masks. Thus, the correct answer is B.
