Applying the Dressing
Captions available
The idea
The surgical dressing is applied with sterile technique as soon as the skin is closed.
In practice
The scrub person passes the dressing materials; the incision is covered completely, and the dressing is secured with tape or a bandage.
Where people slip
The dressing is part of the sterile procedure, so it goes on with sterile technique, not after the field is broken down.
