AORN Journal, Jan, 2006
An article discusses the where-abouts of AORN Journal staff members during a blackout that affected nearly 30 million people from New York to Toronto. * "News in ORbit" summarizes a study that found that men, not women, are the primary dispersers of Staphylococcus aureus. * An author provides techniques for personnel who handle radioactive materials.
* In "OR Fact and Principle," a reader asks what to do about a surgeon who refuses to cover his nose with his mask. The answer suggests that the OR supervisor should tactfully and firmly offer to adjust the surgeon's mask while he is operating. If this subtle message does not work, the nurse should report this breach in technique to the chief of surgery.
