Have you ever contaminated the sterile field?

Neat! I work in the OR, you'd think id have something more interesting to ask that was just the first thing that came to mind. I was wondering what exactly about obese surgeries are you focusing on, aside from obesity? It seems, at least where I am, all out patients are obese, smokers or both. What I see is that obesity is so rampant that when we get a patient that is just merely overweight we are presently surprised.

Haha thank you. I usually keep the field sterile and the docs moving. :) I think I'm generally considered a scrub nurse but I'm not a nurse, I don't have a degree.

That is quite the orchestration! I don't get the chance to be a part of those kinda of cases. Do you focus only on the cases themselves or do you follow the out comes as well?
