Theatre nursing in Australia.
A herniorraphy is the same wherever it is carried out, in any part of the world. If that was all our job was about, as some would have us believe, then life would be simple indeed. However, it never ceased to amaze me how many different ways there were to carry out the same job. In Adelaide we 'wet-set' our instruments, in Darwin we had small pre-packed trays which were set on trolleys sideways, and in Perth we had pre-sterilised boxes of instruments which we laid out on trolleys ourselves.
