The Nurse Is Helping the Health Care Provider Perform a Sterile

The nurse is helping the health care provider perform a sterile procedure at the bedside. Halfway through the procedure, the nurse believes the health care provider has contaminated the sterile field. The nurse should:

A) report the health care provider for violating surgical asepsis and endangering the patient.
B) ask the health care provider whether she contaminated her glove and the sterile field.
C) point out the possible break in surgical asepsis and provide another set of sterile gloves and a fresh sterile field.
D) not say anything, because it is near the end of the procedure.
