Operating field
(Redirected from Draft:Operating field)
An operating field, also referred to as a surgical field, is an isolated sterile area where surgery is performed.[1] It is usually utilized to reduce the chance of post-operative infections, and aims to improve efficiency during surgery.[2][3] Lower complication rates post surgery have also been linked to clearness of the operating field.[4][5]
