Which of the following is acceptable according to the CDC's recommendations for aseptic hand hygiene?

A. Pull product identification slips from a box or package. Pulling product slips is not a standard method for inventory management.
B. Use a two-bin system, one as a backup bin and one bin for ordering. The two-bin system helps manage inventory by using one bin for current use and a backup bin that triggers reordering when needed.
C. Ask staff members to identify products that need to be ordered and add them to the list. Relying on staff members can be less systematic than maintaining a structured inventory process.
D. Hand count items to identify what needs to be ordered. Hand counting can be inefficient and prone to errors. A systematic approach, like the two-bin system, is more effective.

A. Perform a sterile hand scrub: While sterile technique is important in many procedures, a sterile hand scrub is not specifically necessary for suture removal.
B. Lift the knot toward the wound: Lifting the knot towards the wound helps to ease the removal of the suture by reducing tension on the skin, making the procedure easier and less painful.
C. Begin cutting the sutures in the middle of the wound: Sutures should be cut close to the skin, not in the middle, to ensure proper removal and avoid causing unnecessary trauma to the wound.
D. Clean the wound with a disinfectant: Cleaning the wound with a disinfectant is not necessary before suture removal and might irritate the wound. Instead, the area should be cleaned after suture removal if needed.
