An Electronic Educational Resource for Ready Reference in the OR

ABSTRACT
• NURSES AND SURGICAL technologists working on weekends or after hours may not always be familiar with a specific setup for an emergent surgical procedure.
• AT ST VINCENT HEALTHCARE, Billings, Mont, an electronic tool was developed to address this concern.
• THE POWERPOINT-BASED Electronic Education Resource (PEER) system provides staff members with a quick, educational overview of surgical setup, patient positioning, and procedural steps. AORN J 83 (June 2006) 1374–1383.
