Assignment task: Conduct research on the internet or the library to locate a real-life case of an OR fire that has occurred. Share that article/video in your initial post, so your classmates can watch or read the details and then comment.
1. Describe what happened and how it relates to what you have learned about the dangers of fire in the OR.
2. Could this incident have been prevented, or does this type of thing "just happen" sometimes, and it is a risk one takes when having surgery?
3. What specifically could have been done to prevent this event?
4. If you feel nothing could have been done, then do you think the patient should have been denied the procedure due to the risk?
