護理師準備處理無菌包裝。哪項動作是正確的?
A nurse is preparing to handle a sterile package. Which action is correct?
- ATouching the inner surface of the sterile wrapper觸碰無菌包裝之內層表面
- BOpening the outermost flap toward the body朝向身體方向打開最外層折疊處
- COpening the outermost flap away from the body✓ 正解背向身體方向打開最外層折疊處
- DLaying the package on a non-sterile table將包裝放置於非無菌檯面上
無菌技術(Sterile technique)的核心原則在於維持無菌區域不受非無菌物品污染。打開無菌包裝時,最外層的摺邊(flap)應向遠離身體的方向拉開(C),這樣可以確保在操作過程中,護理師的制服或身體不會意外觸碰到已打開的無菌區域,防止交叉污染。相反,若向身體方向打開,身體極易跨過無菌區域,造成污染。無菌物品的內部表面(A)絕對不能被碰觸,因為那是病人即將接觸的區域。此外,無菌物品必須放置在乾淨、乾燥且高於腰部的平面上,而非僅是「檯面」(D)。
The core principle of sterile technique is to keep the sterile field free from contamination by nonsterile items. When opening a sterile package, the outermost flap should be pulled away from the body (C); this ensures that during the procedure the nurse's uniform or body does not inadvertently touch the opened sterile field, thus preventing cross-contamination. Conversely, opening the flap toward the body easily causes the body to pass over the sterile field, resulting in contamination. The inner surface of the sterile item (A) must never be touched, as that is the area the patient will come into contact with. Furthermore, sterile items must be placed on a clean, dry surface above waist level, not merely on "a countertop" (D).
