Question

question 2 of 5
select the best answer: what should be done with a syringe after use?

• store for later
• place in trash can
• recap needle
• dispose after one use

Explanation:

Syringes (especially with needles) are typically single - use medical devices for safety (to prevent needlestick injuries, infection transmission). Storing for later or recapping the needle is unsafe (recapping can cause needle sticks), and placing in a regular trash can is improper (they need special disposal). So the correct action is to dispose after one use.

Answer:

D. Dispose after one use
