  22. BLOODBORNE HAZARDS HEPATITIS B VIRUS (HBV): • ONE OF THE MOST COMMON VIRUSES • VACCINES AVAILABLE TO PREVENT INFECTION • CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO LIVER LEADING TO DEATH • VIRUS CAN BE SPREAD TO FAMILY MEMBERS EASILY • SEVERE FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS ARE A COMMON SYMPTOM • BLOOD, SALIVA AND OTHER BODY FLUIDS MAY BE INFECTIOUS • SYMPTOMS MAY BE DELAYED 28 TO 160 DAYS AFTER EXPOSURE

  31. GENERAL CONCEPTS OF TOXICOLOGY ROUTES OF ENTRY • INHALATION • -- A DOSE THAT IS ABSORBED THROUGH THE LUNGS INTO THE BLOODSTREAM • ABSORPTION • -- A DOSE THAT IS ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN OR EYES

  32. GENERAL CONCEPTS OF TOXICOLOGY ROUTES OF ENTRY • INGESTION • -- A DOSE THAT IS ABSORBED THROUGH THE GASTRO- • INTESTINAL TRACT FROM EATING, DRINKING OR SMOKING • INJECTION • -- A DOSE THAT IS ABSORBED VIA BROKEN GLASS, SPRAY • GUNS, NEEDLES, COMPRESSED AIR, KNIVES ETC.

  33. GENERAL CONCEPTS OF TOXICOLOGY EXPOSURE TERMINOLOGY • LOCAL EFFECT. DAMAGE TO BODY PARTS THAT ACTUALLY CONTACT • THE HARMFUL SUBSTANCE (ACID ON A HAND). • SYSTEMIC EFFECT. DAMAGE TO AN AREA OF THE BODY AFTER THE • SUBSTANCE IS ABSORBED (LIVER DAMAGE). • INDIVIDUAL SUSCEPTIBILITY. SOME PEOPLE ARE NATURALLY • SENSITIVE OR CAN DEVELOP SENSITIVITY TO A SUBSTANCE. • DOSE. COMBINATION OF CONCENTRATION AND LENGTH OF BODILY • EXPOSURE TO A SPECIFIC MATERIAL.

  34. ABSORPTION • INGESTION • INJECTION METHODS OF CONTROL ROUTES OF ENTRY

  35. CONTROL THE SPREAD OF CONTAMINATION METHODS OF CONTROL

  36. METHODS OF CONTROL COMMON SENSE RULES: • WASH HANDS AND REMOVE PPE BEFORE: • EATING • SMOKING • DRINKING • HANDLING CONTACT LENSES • APPLYING COSMETICS OR LIP BALM
