Covering Back Tables: Myths, Risks, & Best Practices

from First Case Podcast · host First Case Media

"You can't cover your back table!" or can you? 🤔 For years, many of us were taught that covering a back table was never allowed. But AST and AORN guidelines say otherwise, as long as it's done correctly. Join Melanie Perry and Chris Blevins as they kick off a brand-new season of First Case by busting this long-standing myth. They'll dive into when covering a back table is appropriate, how to do it safely, and why understanding the why behind the practice matters for every surgical team. Tune in to the Season 17 premiere now! #operatingroom #ornurse #perioperative #podcast #scrubtech #surgicaltechnologist
