Which of the following describes appropriate hood-related behavior?

Leaning over the work area and open containers

Keeping the hood powered off during compounding

Coughing and sneezing into the hood

Cleaning the hood prior to beginning compounding

Maintaining a clean, sterile work area inside the hood is essential for safe compounding. Cleaning the hood prior to beginning compounding removes dust and contaminants, helps preserve the laminar airflow, and minimizes the risk of contaminating sterile preparations. The other behaviors compromise safety: leaning over the work area and opening containers can disrupt airflow and increase contamination risk; keeping the hood powered off defeats the protective airflow; coughing or sneezing into the hood introduces droplets and can contaminate both the hood interior and the preparations. Cleaning first is the appropriate hood-related practice.
