Question 1 of 5
A nurse preceptor is observing a newly hired nurse perform a sterile dressing change. Which of the following actions should the nurse preceptor identify as maintaining sterile technique?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because using sterile forceps to pack sterile gauze into the wound is essential to maintaining sterile technique. Sterile forceps prevent contamination of the wound.
Choice B is incorrect because using a sterile-gloved hand to adjust the back of the sterile gown can introduce contamination.
Choice C is incorrect because setting up the sterile field 30 minutes prior can lead to contamination.
Choice D is incorrect because placing sterile gauze too close to the edge of a sterile drape can also lead to contamination.
