Quiz: What Do Operating Room Nurses Do?

Do You Know What Operating Room Nurses Do?

Operating Room nurses are sometimes the unknown or not remembered nurses in a patient's surgical experience. Many of the medications given to a patient having surgery induce amnesia. This is a good thing so the patient doesn't remember some of the pain and nausea that can be experienced with surgery. Unfortunately, the nurses that took care of the patient are also forgotten.

Test your knowledge, your mettle, your trivia (not trivial) pursuit, your multiple choice skills.  See if you cut the mustard, are up to snuff, ace in the hole, all that good stuff.  Take my quiz is what I'm saying! Good luck, and have fun.  

All the correct answers to this quiz can be found on Operating Room Nurses.

    I only got 6 right...however I guessed most of it. Learned a few new things and that's always good. Considering I've had 5 major operations in my life, it's good to finally know all that an OR nurse does. Great lens!

    Well that must have been sheer luck! I managed to get 7 right. Fun quiz since I know nothing about nursing.

    My goodness! I actually got 7 right on the quiz; I'm impressed. I didn't realize medications were given to induce a level of amnesia during surgery, though...I learned a few new things tonight. Thanks.
