I believe the answer is: Mucous membrane exposure

Mucous membrane exposure refers to the exposure of a certain type of illness that came from the bodily fluid of the patient. Suctioning is the process of clearing blood, saliva, or vomit from patient's airway. These fluids could be contaminated and expose the medical professionals during the process.
