Key Concepts • Sterile Field: An area immediately around a patient that has been prepared for a surgical procedure. The area includes all furniture covered with sterile drapes and all personnel who are in sterile attire. • Aseptic Technique: The methods by which microbial contamination is prevented in the environment • Sterile Technique: “Methods by which contamination with microorganisms is prevented to maintain sterility throughout the surgical procedure.” 7

Key Concepts • Surgical Conscience: The basis for practice of strict adherence to sterile technique by all surgical team members; It involves a level of honesty and moral integrity that must be upheld
Ref:2008 Surgical Technology for the Surgical Technologist: A positive Care Approach 3rd edition 11

Developing the Surgical Conscience • Is this best practice? • Do I have everything necessary for the procedure? • Have I done all I can to provide a safe, therapeutic environment for the patient?

AORN • Recommended Practices for Sterilization in the Perioperative Practice Setting • “The creation and maintenance of an aseptic environment has a direct influence on patient outcomes.” • Minimizing patient’s risk of Surgical Site Infection (SSI) is a major responsibility of perioperative RN • Surgical items free of contamination at time of use is important measure to prevent SSI • “Sterilization provides the highest level of assurance that surgical items are free of viable microorganisms”

Quality Metric: Surgical Site Infection Rate • No implant: Infection occurs within 30 days after the operative procedure • Implant: Infection occurs within 1 year if implant is in place and the infection appears to be related to the operative procedure
