What actions with sterile gowns and gloves violate correct sterile technique?
Some actions with sterile gowns and gloves that would violate correct sterile technique include:Not gathering and setting out all necessary suppliesNot performing NON-sterile tasks FIRSTNot tying back your long hair first before washing your handsNot removing anything on your body that could interfere with the sterile procedure: your bracelet; stethoscope around your neck; pocket protector holding your scissors, pens, etc.Setting everything up and opening sterile products--then, leaving it all sit out and leaving the room while the patient vists with family and friends. They could touch anything that is opened.Not washing your hands and doing so using correct hand-washing procedures before touching ANY sterile equipment / productsTouching the sterile gloves any place except at the top with your washed hand.Touching with your washed hand the fingers of a sterile glove to pull the fingers into better position (You CAN touch the sterile parts of gloves if BOTH hands are already gloved.)Pulling up your sterile gloves at the wrists when wearing the sterile gloves -- the hand and glove that touches your skin at the top of the glove is now NOT sterile anymore.Moving and setting aside objects that are in your way-- should have done that during prep.Opening the sterile napkin or sheet for your work area but letting the sterile side touch a non-sterile surface.Touching ANYthing that is NON-sterile after washing your hands or already wearing a sterile gown and gloves (remove gloves and gown; rewash your hands; use a new pair of gloves and new gown)Not following correct steps for a sterile procedureBeing gloved and gowned and then, opening the outsides (non-sterile) of packagingPushing back your hair or wiping your face or scratching an itch once you are in sterile garb.Lifting the side of your gown to get something from your pocket.Sneezing over or on the sterile fieldLetting your sweat, if you are nervous, drip onto the sterile field.Letting sterile items touch non-sterile items or objectsLaying a sterile item down outside of the sterile field, even if "only a little" is off the sterile fieldReaching over or across a sterile tray or sterile fieldUsing NON-sterile scissors or tweezers to cut or assist you with handling gauze, tape, tubing, etc.Sitting on the patient's bed to do a sterile procedure (You should never sit on the bed anyway. If you are wearing sterile gown and gloves, you are no longer sterile.)Letting any person without sterile gloves to handle any sterile item-- including the patient-- or your instructor! IF your instructor violates the sterile equipment or touches the sterile field, stop. Remove your gloves/gown, throw out the opened/contaminated items, get new unopened products, rewash your hands, and start over.Leaving the room to get something you forgot, returning, and continuing while wearing the same gloves and gown. If you leave the room, your sterile garb is no longer sterile. Your gloves are no longer sterile. Start over.Using your pen to write a date on tape while still doing the sterile procedure. Wait until you are done with the sterile procedure before doing non-sterile actions.There are so many actions we all do unconsciously. Learning sterile procedures forces us to become conscious of all our actions, even the most simple or ones normally seen as "minor".

Why wear a hospital gown?
Lots of reasons. If you mean a doctor's gown... # To act as a layer of protection between you and bodily fluids. # To protect the patients from your leaving trace contamination from your street clothes. # To act as a form of identification that you're staff and not a patient. # Gowns are easily washed, hard to stain, stand up to the harshest laundering techniques, and don't cost much. # If you mean surgical gowns or sterile gowns, they're sterile and are part of the sterile field, this providing a boundary between the sterile field and the rest of the not-so-clean world. If you mean a patient's gown... # It gives you something to wear to prevent embarrassment, while still allowing hospital staff easy access in case of cleaning, examinations, etc. # It too is super-inexpensive and easily cleaned, so no worries if it gets dirty. # They're reasonably comfortable and hypoallergenic so you can sleep in them easily. They don't shed, so wounds don't become easily contaminated.

How are standard precautions observed in the OR?
Because many times you are dealing with delicate procedures in the OR room, standard precautions are greatly enforced in the surgery unit. Because surgeries take place in the OR rooms, sterile standard precautions are used in the unit. Health care workers use the foot covers, head covers, scrub provided by the hospital, and mouth covers when on the Surgery floor. When dealing with patients, such as preparing them for a procedure, you wear gloves to protect yourself and the patient from any type of infection. Before the doctor arrives for the procedure, the RNs and other health care staff prepare everything that is needed for the procedure. One thing that is prepared is the sterile table with the sterile utensils that will be used during surgery. Before setting up the table, the health care worker must use sterile gowns and sterile gloves. Because they are setting up a sterile environment, sterile rules are applied to the preparation such as anything sterile touches only other sterile items, and everything below your sterile field and any sterile items you turn your back on are considered contaminated. Once the sterile item touches another item that is not sterile, it is considered contaminated and must be properly disposed of. Before the sterile preparation is set up or other set ups take place, the worker must wash their hands before and after. After the procedures are done, and the patient is in the post surgery recovery room, disinfection of the room is required. This means that everything that was used for the procedure is disposed and chemicals such as chlorine are used to disinfect the floor. Another standard precaution that must be taken under consideration in the OR room is if you are not in a sterile gown, then you must not touch anything that is covered in blue. If it is touched and you are not sterile, then the whole set up that was touched must be redone and lots of money is wasted.
Are you naked during general anesthesia?
Most of time you have to remove all of your clothes and change into a hospital gown. The reason for this is because they need the operating room to be sterile. Sometimes they will allow you to wear underwear but it depends on what operation you are having and who the surgeon is. Sometimes they may remove your hospital gown to perform the surgery, but this is not always the case. It depends on the site of operation.
