select all of the following aseptic techniques which help prevent infections.
annual cleaning of patient environments
ensuring equipment and supplies are sterile
using contaminated instruments during surgery
using sterile technique to prevent contamination

Explanation:

Aseptic techniques aim to prevent infection by avoiding contamination. Annual cleaning is too infrequent for asepsis; using contaminated instruments causes infection, so these are incorrect. The other options directly support sterile, contamination-free environments and practices.

Answer:

• Ensuring equipment and supplies are sterile
• Using sterile technique to prevent contamination
• Using strict barrier techniques such as PPE
