How frequently should temperature and humidity levels in the sterile storage area be recorded?

  1. Weekly

  2. Monthly

  3. Hourly

  4. Daily

The correct answer is: Daily

Recording temperature and humidity levels in the sterile storage area is important for ensuring the quality and safety of stored items. Checking these levels on a daily basis allows for prompt identification of any potential fluctuations or issues, allowing for quick action to be taken to maintain suitable conditions. Weekly or monthly recordings may not provide timely and accurate information for necessary adjustments. Hourly recordings may be excessive and impractical for most facilities, as temperature and humidity levels are not expected to fluctuate significantly within such a short timeframe.
