懷疑肺結核(Tuberculosis, TB)的病人具備空氣傳播(Airborne transmission)的高風險,其細菌可長時間懸浮於空氣中。為了保護其他病人與醫療人員,這類病人必須優先安排在負壓病室(Negative pressure room),並在進入病室前佩戴 N95 口罩。其他選項如高血壓或手術傷口,通常只需標準防護。
A client with suspected tuberculosis requires immediate airborne precautions because the bacteria are transmitted through the air and can remain suspended for long periods. Prioritizing isolation in a negative-pressure room protects other patients and healthcare workers from potential exposure.
