Question 1 of 5
The cardiac team is developing a standardized sterile back table setup and is unable to find sufficient research evidence for their project. Where might they look for information on best practices?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Choice B as case studies and expert opinions offer valuable best-practice insights when research is scarce. Surveys (choice A) lack depth, AORN standards (choice C) focus on sterilization not setup specifics, and vendors (choice D) may prioritize sales over evidence.

This approach ensures the cardiac team adopts a setup that's effective and safe, reflecting perioperative nursing's reliance on diverse, trusted sources to maintain high standards when definitive research is unavailable.
