About this listen

This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: • Sterility is an absolute concept on the NCLEX; an item is either 100% sterile or 100% contaminated. • The one-inch border of a sterile field is always considered contaminated, and touching it compromises the entire field. • Any sterile item must be kept above waist level and within your direct line of sight at all times. • Moisture on a sterile drape causes "strike-through" or wicking contamination, requiring immediate replacement of the field. • The priority action after any break in sterile technique is to stop the procedure and replace the contaminated items or field.
