What are single-use items?

  1. Items that can be disinfected

  2. Items that can be reused even if exposed to bodily fluids

  3. Disposables items that cannot be used more than once

  4. Items that sterilize other objects

The correct answer is: Disposables items that cannot be used more than once

Single-use items are disposable items that are intended to be used only once and then discarded. It is crucial in the esthetician profession to use single-use items for procedures that may involve bodily fluids to prevent the risk of cross-contamination and the spread of infections. Items that can be disinfected or sterilize other objects are not considered single-use items as they can be reused after proper cleaning and disinfection.
