Setting Up A Sterile Dressing Tray and Principles of Sterility (Nursing Skills)

Фильм және анимация

Setting up a sterile dressing tray and maintaining the principles of sterility is not always as easy as it sounds. There are many ways in which a sterile filed can become contaminated and nurses need to be aware of these risks.
This video is about Setting up a Sterile Dressing Tray and Principles of Sterility.
Setting up and maintaining a sterile field optimizes patient safety and minimizes the risk of microorganism transfer. The principles of sterility include:
* never reach over your sterile field
* Keep forceps pointed down
* One inch border is considered contaminated
On
* Remove lid and leave it face up, label in palm of hand, position above the tray (no touch) and pour without splash
* Only sterile items are used in the sterile field
* Out of sight = contaminated, Keep a position where the tray is beside you and within view as you work on the patient' wound
* Area below the waist = contaminated
* Soiled drape (wet) = contaminated
Can you spot the errors? Test your knowledge at the end of the video and comment below with the errors you notice. I will share that the errors presented have been observed in clinical settings - and NEED to be corrected.

    Errors pretty much everything: -Placing the bottle over the tray. You shouldn't place unsterile objects above the tray. And in general must avoid doing things over the tray other than what's required with the sterile material. -Wearing a watch -Spill the solution -Use the blue forceps instead of the both the sterile forceps. -Not folding the cloth properly -Damping it and squeezing it with not enough care and attention -Leaving forceps inside the tray. Contaminated parts included -Touching the cloth with the sterile forceps for no reason

    Great job, just one note, the only way to get your sterile fluid into the tray is to have the bottle over the tray. Ensure you avoid touching the tray.

    @@NurseMinder yes that's true. Then you're supposed to open the bottle away from the tray and pour the fluid carefully from the side of the tray? To minimise going over it Anyway, I'm not even a nurse, I'm not sure how I ended up here haha. I'm a physicist researching how to do wound dressings for my quail.

    Ok the error I have seen after watching the video is that the sterile field is contaminated by holding the bottle too far away when pouring the saline out, there fore causing a splash on to the sterile field contaminate it ,placing the saline bottle in the sterile field contaminate it and also not turning the bottle cover up after removing the cap and also placing unsterile forceps among sterile forceps on to sterile field therefore contaminate the sterile field

If I’m right handed and put my tray on my right side.. after placing the drape down, when I’m taking my items out one by one… is the first item diagonal from me-so it’s be farthest from the patient and on my left side or do I take the item out and put it closest to the pt- my right side

If I take out the items one by one should I start from right to left or from left to right? Bc if I go diagonal from the box which is left to right my arm is crossing over the sterile drape. But if I go from right to left, my arm is crossing over the previous items? I appreciate all the help! I have checkoffs Monday and have no idea what order to do

    right at the beginning of this video my school would fail you.. setting up the sterile field you use the aseptic technique and wear regular gloves to open the sterile bag to unfold sterile drape... and whatnot... you technically are reaching over the sterile field even with the plastic tweezers what good is it after ?

    Always follow your schools policies. Using stripe gloves to open a “clean” package is pointless. The bag is not sterile and the outside of the drape is going to be in contact with your table. It is not sterile once it touches your table If your school has evidence to suggest the use of costly sterile gloves for opening the package - it would be surprising to me - and another reason why healthcare gets so expensive
