Which of the following would ruin an amorphic environment in the operating room?

The use of powdered gloves in an operating room setting can compromise the sterile environment. Powdered gloves contain cornstarch or other substances that can become airborne during procedures, which poses a risk of contamination. This contamination can lead to infections or complications for patients, as the powdered lubricant can introduce bacteria into sterile areas of the body. Maintaining a strict sterile technique is critical in an operating room to ensure patient safety and successful surgical outcomes.

While sterile saline solution is typically used for irrigation without compromising sterility, unsterilized tools obviously introduce pathogens, and not wearing masks can lead to airborne contamination, powdered gloves specifically disrupt the sterile field through the introduction of particulates.
