Question: 1 / 400

What is classified as regulated infectious waste?

Items used in the tattooing process that are untouched

Waste visibly dripping with blood

Regulated infectious waste is defined primarily by its potential to carry pathogens that could pose a risk to public health. Waste that is visibly dripping with blood qualifies as regulated infectious waste because it poses a significant contamination risk due to the presence of bloodborne pathogens. When items are soaked or leaking with bodily fluids, they need to be handled with strict safety and disposal procedures to prevent the spread of infectious diseases.

While the other options represent various types of waste generated during tattooing, they do not carry the same level of risk associated with infections and are generally not categorized under regulated infectious waste. Items untouched by procedures, plastic containers for disposal, and packaging materials do not typically contain or are contaminated with infectious substances, hence they would fall under general waste categories rather than the regulated infectious waste classification.
