You are scrubbing a Total Knee. The Surgeon is using a reciprocating saw to remove the distal portion of the femur. As he finishes his cut, the chunk of bone he removed flies up in the air, hits the OR light and comes back down onto the drapes at the foot of the bed.
What do you do?
Is there a contamination?
If there is, how do you correct the situation?

Select one of the following:

I would treat the contaminated body material similar as a hair. I would use a instrument that wont be needed for the rest of the procedure, take the bone material off of the drape so strick through contamination would be less likely with blood. I would hand that off to a gloved circulator. finally we need to cover the contamination on the drape so a 3/4 sheet could be used to cover that contaminated spot where the bone landed.
The bone fragment would be removed with a instrument that wont be utulized later in the case. Then a new laparotomy sheet would be draped over the patient.
