OR Etiquette

When entering the OR while a procedure is occurring. Listen with your eyes. Get a feel for what is going on. Is the situation calm, or is it tense. Be quiet. If the situation is calm, only look at the person you want to give the message to. Talk quietly. Do not distract the surgeon.

The above was taken from an interesting conversation that I had with a Nurse.
