Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to perform a sterile dressing change for a client with a surgical wound. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Open the sterile field after donning sterile gloves. This is the correct action because the nurse should maintain the sterility of the field by putting on sterile gloves before touching any sterile items. Opening the sterile field after donning sterile gloves helps prevent contamination.
A: Using clean gloves to remove the old dressing is incorrect because sterile gloves are required for sterile procedures.
C: Cleansing the wound with alcohol-based solution is incorrect as it may cause irritation and is not the appropriate method for wound care.
D: Placing the sterile drape directly on the wound is incorrect as the drape should be placed around the wound, not on it, to maintain sterility.
