Question 1 of 5
A nurse is observing a newly licensed nurse prepare a sterile field. For which of the following actions should the nurse intervene?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. Holding gauze packages 15 cm (6 in) above the sterile field can lead to contamination as it is not maintaining a sterile technique. When holding sterile items above the field, there is a risk of dropping or accidentally touching non-sterile surfaces, compromising the sterility of the field.
Choice A is correct as wearing sterile gloves when moving sterile items ensures that the items remain sterile.
Choice B is correct as positioning the wrapped package with the outer flap away from the nurse prevents contamination.
Choice D is correct as holding a bottle with the label away from the palm prevents contamination from touching the label.
In summary, the other choices are incorrect because they all promote sterile technique and help prevent contamination, unlike choice C which poses a risk of contamination.
