Tech in Surgery Prep / Unit 10   TSC 236 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Relief During a Case

Captions available

The idea

When the scrub person or circulating nurse is replaced during a case, responsibility for the count is handed over deliberately.

In practice

Ideally the same two people do all counts; when someone is permanently relieved, a count and a transfer of information follow facility policy.

Where people slip

The person arriving should know where every counted item is before the person leaving goes.
