Sterile Technique Throughout Setup
Captions available
The idea
Every rule of sterile technique applies during setup, not only during the operation.
In practice
Keep the field in view, never reach over it, keep gloved hands above the waist and in sight, and never turn your back on the sterile field.
Where people slip
A setup contaminated before the patient arrives contaminates the whole case.
