Aircraft Emergency Procedures – Decompression, Evacuation, And Medical First Aid Practice Test

Which items are used to isolate an area affected by air sickness?

Soap and water. Paper towels, blankets, and gloves. Plastic wrap and tape. No containment is necessary.

Correct Answer:

Paper towels, blankets, and gloves.

Explanation:

Isolating an area affected by air sickness relies on quick containment using absorbent and barrier materials to prevent spread and protect people nearby. Paper towels soak up the liquid and help keep it from spreading, while gloves keep your hands protected from contact. A blanket provides a simple, disposable barrier over the area to contain splatter and odors and to shield surrounding surfaces during the cleanup. Together, these items create a practical containment setup that makes subsequent cleaning safer and easier. Soap and water are used for cleaning after containment, not for the act of isolating, and other options like plastic wrap and tape aren’t as effective or convenient in a cabin setting.
