MLS 037: PMLS 1 TYPES OF HAZARDS IN THE LABORATORY LEARNING OUTCOMES TO DISCUSS PROPERLY THE APPROPRIATE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS PRACTICES WHEN HANDLING BIOLOGICAL, CHEMICAL. ELECTRICA, FIRE AND RADIOLOGICAL MATERIAL. TO EFFECTIVELY ASSESS THE RISKS OF SPECIFIC HAZARDS. TO ACCURATELY IDENTIFY BIOLOGICAL, CHEMICAL, RADIOLOGICAL, PHYSICAL, ELECTRICAL AND FIRE HAZARDS. LEARNING OUTCOMES TO LIST SYSTEMATICALLY THE HARMFUL EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT HAZARDS TO EXPLAIN ACCURATELY HOW TO AVOID DIFFERENT KINDS OF HAZARDS. ACTIVITY MEMORIZE THE SYMBOLS THAT WILL BE FLASHED ON THE SCREEN FOR FIVE MINUTES. AFTER THAT, RANDOM STUDENTS WILL BE CALLED TO IDENTIFY THEM.  TYPES OF HAZARDS BIOLOGIC HAZARD SHARP HAZARD CHEMICAL HAZARD RADIATION HAZARD ELECTRICAL HAZARD FIRE HAZARD ERGONOMIC HAZARD 1. 1.

FOMITES, DUST DROPLETS DISPOSAL Must be placed in an appropriate container with a biohazard symbol, then decontamianted Decontamiantion depends per institution: - INCINERATION -AUTOCLAVING SHARPS HAZARD includes needles, lancets, and broken glasswares CHEMICAL HAZARD can be a solid, liquid or gas which can harm the person exposed to it RADIOACTIVE HAZARD maybe encountered in the clinical lab when procedure using radioisotopes are performed ELECTRICAL HAZARD may cause electric shock and burns, and fire FIRE HAZARD Any actions, materials, or conditions that might increase the size or severity of a fire or that might cause a fire to start are fire hazards R- ESCUE A-LARM C-ONTAIN E-XTINGUISH OR EVACUATE P-ULL THE PIN A-IM S-QUEEZE S-WEEP  TYPES OF FIRE EXTINGUISHERS ERGONOMIC HAZARD a collective group of injuries involving the musculoskeletal and or nervous system in response to long term repetitive twisting, bending, lifting, or assuming static postures for an extended period of time ACTIVITY GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS HAZARD. ACTIVITY GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS HAZARD. ACTIVITY GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS HAZARD. ACTIVITY GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS HAZARD. ACTIVITY GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS HAZARD. ACTIVITY GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF THIS HAZARD. THANKYOU
