Answer:

<em>The route of entry is absorption.</em>

Explanation:

Hazardous chemicals can enter the body of a person by processes such as inhalation, absorption, ingestion and injection.

If a hazardous chemical, such as sodium hydroxide, enters the body of a researcher through the eyes or through contact with the skin, then such a method of the entrance is termed as absorption. The epidermis and dermis layer of the skin can absorb various chemicals which will then be transferred into the bloodstream.

How can rescuers ensure that they are providing effective breaths when usimg a bag mask device??
finlep [7]

A bag-mask is a medical device designed to ventilate a patient in respiratory arrest.

It must be on hand in an emergency department of the hospital or an ambulance.

It can be used before or after intubation while waiting for a mechanical respirator.

It can be used in CPR.

The bag-mask is preferably connected to a source of oxygen.

To use it requires 2 hands:

The right-hand holds the ball and exerts pressure with the 4 fingers to push the air (press with the thumb is an error).

The left hand applies the mask to the mouth and the nose, keeping a good seal, then putting the hand on the chest of the victim to check if there is an expansion/shrinkage of the rib cage due to the entry of the air.
