When and how often do you need to disinfect the Primary Engineering Control (PEC)?

  1. Annually, after each compounded product

  2. Every 30 minutes during continuous compounding, at the beginning of the shift, after a spill, or if the surface is contaminated

  3. Every shift change only

  4. Once a day

The correct answer is: Every 30 minutes during continuous compounding, at the beginning of the shift, after a spill, or if the surface is contaminated

In compounding pharmacies, the Primary Engineering Control (PEC) is critical for maintaining sterility during the preparation of sterile products. The correct answer is B - to disinfect the PEC every 30 minutes during continuous compounding, at the beginning of the shift, after a spill, or if the surface is contaminated. This frequency is crucial to minimize the risk of contamination and ensure the safety of compounded sterile preparations. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the recommended frequency and circumstances for disinfecting the PEC as outlined in compounding guidelines. Simply disinfecting annually, only during shift changes, or once a day would not provide adequate protection against potential contamination risks during compounding processes.
