Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Blades should be opened on the working end of the sterile field and the scrub person should be aware of exactly where they are opened. Do not open other items near the blades, and do not open them into basins because contact with the basin dulls the cutting surface.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
A true spinal headache caused by a persistent CSF leak through the needle hole in the dura usually responds to supine bed rest, IV fluids, and systemic analgesia.
