SURGICAL FORMS
AND RECORDS
TERMINAL OBJECTIVE:

Complete selected
forms and records
ENABLING OBJECTIVES


1. Given simulated data, complete
surgical forms and records
2. Prepare surgical forms and
records for use during a surgical
procedure
PURPOSE:
Documentation


Verbal communication
between patients and health
care providers does not
constitute legal evidence in a
court of law
Records identify what
occurred and what didn’t
occur
Purpose

Means of communication between
providers during course of
treatment
Standard Form 515
(Tissue Examination)


Intraoperative record of any tissue
or item removed from patient during
procedure
Can be used for more than one
tissue specimen
Appendix
Gallbladder
Bullet
Standard Form 515
(Tissue Examination)

Labeled in the order removed
 Specimens labeled using letters
 First specimen labeled “A”,
etc… A
Standard Form 515
(Tissue Examination)

Cultures labeled using numbers

First culture labeled “1”, etc…

Additional documentation is
required on any specimen that is
tagged identifying a specific margin
or location


Pertinent information required
 Surgeon’s name
 Name of specimen
 Clinical history
 Diagnoses:

counts by O.R. nurse is
documented with word CORRECT
or INCORRECT on SF 516
