Fundamental Offensive Skills

Double Step

The double step (often related to a layup or gather step) is a fundamental skill that combines dribbling with the launch towards the basket.

After each change of possession, defensive rebound, or turnover, the ball must be taken beyond the arc before an offensive play can be made, unless the rebound is caught in the offensive zone by a teammate. After each successful shot, possession...

Prions and Disease Transmission

Prions are viral proteins that cause diseases. Direct transmission is not common, but the disease can appear several years after exposure to surgical instruments, needles, or other objects used on infected corpses. Therefore, it is crucial to destroy these instruments. STH or GH, this hormone found in the pituitary of dead bodies, requires disinfection of equipment to prevent contamination of the conjunctiva and injured nerve or blood tissue.

Tuberculosis Transmission and Disinfection

Tuberculosis is transmitted through inhalation. When handling fresh infected lungs, they should be perfused with sliced formalin before using routine disinfectants. This increases the time for disinfestation.

Other Infections and Handling
