You are setting up a laceration repair tray for Dr. Martin to use. As you are preparing the sterile equipment, one of the instruments becomes contaminated. You know Dr. Martin urgently needs the tray. You do nothing about the contamination, which you realize can cause an infection. You finish setting up the tray. Demonstrate a professional and appropriate ethical response to this situation. Discuss the potential health implications for the scenario, if errors are not reported or corrected in writing.
