The three types of transmission-based precautions are contact precautions, droplet precautions, and airborne precautions. Contact precautions are used to prevent the spread of pathogens through direct or indirect contact, while droplet precautions are implemented to protect against larger respiratory droplets that can be expelled during coughing, sneezing, or talking. Airborne precautions are necessary for diseases that can be transmitted through smaller particles that remain suspended in the air. Each type of precaution is designed to minimize the risk of infection in healthcare settings.
