    This course presents an overview of the evolving field of surgical technology. Students will investigate the history of surgery and explore the role of a surgical technician in medical settings. It is a prerequisite course for entry into the clinical training sequence. Lecture ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029. Corequisites: BIO-103 and HIT-120
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course introduces the student to the practice of surgical technology. An in-depth study of universally accepted perioperative care techniques provides the student with the basic technical knowledge and practical skill-set of an entry-level surgical technologist. Students will gain knowledge of the breadth and scope of the roles and responsibilities of the various members of the perioperative team. The successful student will consistently articulate and demonstrate care precepts that meet or exceed specific standards of patient care. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: ENG-013, ENG-023 and MTH-029 Corequisites: SRG-101
  • 4.00 Credits

    The goal of this course is to facilitate student mastery of the generic practice principles inherent to the scrub role. The course is constructed to reinforce basic surgical anatomy while familiarizing the student with the standards of instrument handling, equipment maintenance and procedural techniques required to assure safe and effective operating room conduct. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: SRG-101 and SRG-105 Corequisites: SRG-111
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course introduces the basic concepts of microbiology and their applications in the operating room environment. Emphasis is placed on the microbiological foundation of the infectious disease process, nosocomial infections, control of microbial growth and aseptic technique. This course takes the body systems approach and discusses microorganisms in relationship to the body system where they are normally found or may cause infectious processes. Lecture ( 45.00) Prerequisites: BIO-103

  • 5.00 Credits

    This course is designed to provide the student with a solid introduction to perioperative practice standards, and the contributions that related hospital departments make to support those standards. Obervational experiences will give students an opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge gained in their surgical courses, to practical patient-care situations. This practicum requires 21 hours per week throughout a 15 week semester. Clinical ( 315.00) Prerequisites: SRG-101, SRG-105 and HPE-181 Corequisites: SRG-111 and SRG-110
  • 4.00 Credits

    This course is part two of the Surgical Procedures course. The focus of this course is to prepare entry-level surgical technicians in the hospital setting. The course is constructed to teach basic surgical anatomy, instrumentation and procedural steps for various operating room techniques. This course intends to prepare the student for Clinical Rotation II. Lecture ( 45.00) Laboratory ( 45.00) Prerequisites: SRG-110 and SRG-116 Corequisites: SRG-216 and HIT-132
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course proceeds as the continuation of Surgical Procedures I, with content reflecting progression from the generic practice principles inherent to all surgical interventions to the expanded theory foundations of the specialties. The course is constructed to teach basic surgical anatomy, instrumentation, and procedural steps for various operating room techniques. Lecture ( 45.00) Prerequisites: SRG-112 Corequisites: SRG-217
  • 6.00 Credits

    This course will provide an intense period of active application of the knowledge and practical surgical techniques acquired throughout the Surgical Technology curriculum. The goal of this clinical rotation is to provide the surgical technology student with an experience as close to an operating room staff member as possible, including extensive practice in general surgical cases, thus promoting attainment of an "entry-level" technical skill set by semester end. This practicum requires 28 hours per week throughout a 15 week semester. Clinical ( 420.00) Prerequisites: SRG-116 Corequisites: SRG-210
