Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Before leaving the surgical suite, sterile team members should discard their gowns, gloves, masks, and shoe covers. Scrubs may need to be changed if they are wet or contaminated.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The drapes must be rolled, not pulled, off the patient from head to toe to prevent airborne contamination.
