INTERPRETIVE_STATEMENT |
Prevention of positioning injury requires application of the principles of body mechanics, ongoing assessment throughout the perioperative period, and coordination with the entire health care team. Preexisting conditions (egg, poor nutritional status, extremes of age, vascular insufficiency, diabetes, impaired nerve function) may increase the patient's risk of injury. Other factors, independent of nursing care (egg, type and length of procedure, type of anesthesia) can contribute to the risk of positioning injury. |

INTERPRETIVE_STATEMENT |
Hazards arise from the use of a variety of chemicals in the perioperative environment. Prevention of chemical injury requires application of knowledge of the proper use of each chemical compound. Preexisting patients conditions (egg, open wounds, skin condition, immune status, previous chemical exposure) can influence patient susceptibility to chemical injury. Length of exposure to a chemical may increase the likelihood of injury. These chemicals include, but are not limited to: cleaning solutions, skin prep solutions, pharmaceuticals (egg, irrigation solutions), methylmethacrylate, and tissue preservatives (egg, formalin). |
Patient is free from signs and symptoms of chemical injury |

INTERPRETIVE_STATEMENT |
Prevention of radiation injury requires the application of principles of physics and radiologic safety standards. Policies addressing education, credentialing, and radiologic safety and maintenance must be in accordance with national regulatory standards and manufacturers' documented instructions. Preexisting patient conditions (e.g., length of and /or previous exposure) can influence the patient's susceptibility to radiologic injury. Radiation exposure is limited to the target site. |
Patient is free from signs and symptoms of radiation injury |

INTERPRETIVE_STATEMENT |
Prevention of patient injury during transfer/transport requires application of principles of body mechanics, knowledge of transfer/transport techniques and equipment, and coordination of the entire health care team. Appropriate restraints or safety devices are used in accordance with regulatory standards and manufacturers' documented instructions. The condition of the patient will determine the qualifications and number of health care providers necessary during transfer/transport to ensure safety. Transfer/transport injuries may include skin damage from shearing, falls, fracture, or neuromuscular injury. |
Patient is free from signs and symptoms of injury related to transfer/transport |

Medications administered must be within the defined scope of nursing practice. Safe administration of medications during the perioperative period requires knowledge of the intended purpose and side effects of each medication and the patient's condition and current medication usage. Documentation should reflect name, dose, route, time, and effects of all medications administered. |

INTERPRETIVE_STATEMENT |
The endocrine system with the secretion of hormones regulate cellular metabolism by influencing the rates of biochemical reactions to achieve homeostasis. Adequate hormone responses are critical to maintenance of physiologic equilibrium realized with homeostasis (egg, insulin secretion in response to hyperglycemia; epinephrine secretion during profound hypoglycemia; antidiuretic hormone secretion in the presence of increased osmolarity of the plasma; the instantaneous hypersecretion of pituitary adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) in response to many noxious stimuli; growth hormone to severe muscular exercise and of aldosterone to hemorrhage-induced hypovolemia). Several aspects are monitored throughout the perioperative period. |
Patient's endocrine status is maintained at or improved from baseline levels |
