Cevap
The correct sequence for donning personal protective equipment is to first perform hand hygiene, followed by applying the isolation gown, securing the surgical mask, positioning the eye protection, and finally pulling on clean gloves.
The standardized sequence for donning PPE begins with hand hygiene to ensure clean hands are handling the equipment. The gown is applied first to cover the body, followed by the surgical mask to protect the respiratory tract. Eye protection is placed next so it sits securely over the mask. Finally, gloves are donned last and pulled over the gown cuffs to create a seamless barrier on the wrists.
