When the Surgeon Changes Plan

Captions available

The idea

Procedures sometimes change or expand during the case, and the scrub person adapts the field to the new plan.

In practice

The surgeon tells the team; the scrub person asks for what the new plan needs, and new items join the count.

Where people slip

At the end of the case, the team confirms the procedure actually performed, because it may differ from the one scheduled.
