Question

which of the following primary engineering controls should be used when compounding hazardous drugs?
laminar airflow hood (lafh)
compounding aseptic isolator (cai)
positive pressure rooms
biological safety cabinet

Explanation:

When compounding hazardous drugs, the primary engineering control is a Biological Safety Cabinet (BSC). A laminar airflow hood (LAFH) is for non - hazardous sterile compounding. A Compounding Aseptic Isolator (CAI) is for aseptic compounding of non - hazardous drugs. Positive pressure rooms are not suitable as they can spread hazardous particles; BSCs provide containment and protection from hazardous aerosols and particles.

Answer:

Biological safety cabinet
