organisms to personnel when handling bodily fluid spills - Correct PPE
Is is recommended to inspect the active electrode for insulation defects to prevent this
from occurring during MIS - Correct Capacitive coupling
According to AORN RP for positioning the patient, the perioperative RN should -

B Relly on the surgeons and anesthesia providers assessments to guide positioning
+C Use additional precautions as appropriate based on unique patient considerations
D Depend on the patient's natural defense mechanisms to indicate need for positioning
The disadvantage of using this type of wound closure is because they often cause more
scarring than other skin closure methods - Correct Skin clips

To place a patient safely in this particular position the knees over the break in the
procedure bed to allow for knee flexion - Correct Trendelenberg
A packaging system for items undergoing sterilization should possess this characteristic

solution - Correct Handling natural absorbable sutures (plain, chromic)

a person in this role - Correct Safety officer
This statement about the perioperative nurses role in bioethical decision making is most
justifiable. the perioperative nurse SHOULD - Correct A Try to avoid involvement in
ethical dilemmas unless they are personally engaged in a situation
B Refer all ethical dilemmas to the institution's ethics committee to decide best course
of action
