Tech in Surgery Prep / Unit 14   TSC 345 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Late Additions to the Field

Captions available

The idea

Items added to the field after the initial count are counted as they arrive and added to the record.

In practice

The scrub person and circulating nurse count each added package aloud together, separating sponges one by one, before the items are used.

Where people slip

The busiest moment of a case is when additions are most often miscounted.
