Case summary:
The nursing student was offered to catheterize Mrs. B, a 72-year-old patient. The student reviewed the procedure and went to the patient’s room accompanied by the clinical instructor along with the catheterization supplies. After introducing themselves to the patient, the nursing student started to open the sterile package, prepared the sterile field, and cleansed the meatus. The nursing student has contaminated the catheter in one quick moment as the patient asked a question and diverts the instructor’s eye. Considering the importance of sterility and nosocomial infections, the nursing student told the instructor what happened, obtained a new kit and started proceeding.
