Janice Coswell,an experienced nurse in the breast surgery service,is preparing the OR for a radical mastectomy procedure on a 72-year-old patient with invasive breast cancer.This patient also has periods of atrial fibrillation,which is moderately controlled by antidysrhythmic medications.The patient is also taking anticoagulant medication.Janice realizes that judicious use of electrosurgery will be important to maintain adequate hemostasis for this patient.She has assigned this patient a nursing diagnosis of "Risk for Injury related to use of electrosurgery," and is determined to achieve the desired relevant nursing outcome.Appropriate nursing interventions for this patient would include:

A) position the dispersive pad far from the incision site to prevent contact with prep solution.
B) activate electrosurgical unit before dispersive pad and active electrode are connected.
C) set power setting as low as possible to achieve desired effect.
D) use a trifolded green towel pocket for active electrode safety on the sterile field.
