which of the following pieces of personal protective
equipment (ppe) should the technician put on first?
shoe covers
hair cover
gown
face mask

Explanation:

First Question (Filter Needle Task)

Filter needles are used to draw liquid from an ampule because ampules are glass containers that can have small glass particles when opened, and the filter needle removes these particles. Drawing from a single - dose vial, viscous liquid, or reconstituting powdered drugs do not require a filter needle for this purpose.

When compounding drugs, the order of putting on PPE typically starts with the hair cover. This is because hair can shed particles, and covering it first helps prevent contamination of the compounding area. Shoe covers are usually put on later, the gown is put on after hair and face protection (if applicable), and the face mask is also part of the later steps in the standard PPE donning order for compounding.

Answer:

To draw up liquid from an ampule
