Surgical First Assistant

A surgical first assistant, also referred to as a surgical assistant or simply a first assist, works in the operating room during a surgical procedure. They anticipate the needs of the surgical team and during an operation, assist the surgeon with tasks such as selecting equipment, holding open incisions, stopping bleeding, closing the incision, among many other technical tasks. They are advanced allied health practitioners who provide aid in exposure, wound closure, bleeding control, and other intraoperative technical functions that help the surgeon carry out a safe operation with optimal results for the surgical patient. The surgical assistant performs these tasks under the direction and supervision of the surgeon and in accordance with hospital policy and appropriate laws and regulations. Surgical first assistants interact with surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, and other health care staff. They work very closely with patients of all ages. They have responsibilities before, during, and after surgical procedures. We took this surgical assistant's deposition to establish the standard of care for a surgical assistant in Nashville during a bi-femoral osteotomy which is an orthopedic surgery designed to correct pigeon-toes.
