Question: 1 / 400

Where is the appropriate placement for a Bowie-Dick test pack in a sterilization chamber?

Next to the door on the top rack

Above the drain on the bottom rack

The appropriate placement for a Bowie-Dick test pack in a sterilization chamber is above the drain on the bottom rack. This placement ensures that the pack is exposed to the steam and air mixture, allowing it to properly evaluate the sterilization process. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not provide the necessary exposure to the steam and air mixture. Placing the pack next to the door (option A) or by the heating element (option D) may result in the pack not being exposed to the proper temperature and pressure. Placing the pack on the center rack (option C) may result in uneven distribution of the steam and air mixture, leading to inaccurate results. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate placement for a Bowie-Dick test pack.
