Tech in Surgery Prep / Unit 18   TSC 430 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Moving Around the Field

Captions available

The idea

Movement within and around the sterile field is kept to a minimum and controlled, to avoid accidental contamination.

In practice

Sterile team members face the field and keep their hands in sight; nobody reaches over the field, and unsterile staff stay a safe distance away.

Where people slip

Most breaks happen during movement, not while people stand still.
