Clinical Sequence A 53-year-old man with long-standing history of rectal prolapse presented for elective sigmoid resection with rectopexy. The patient underwent a pre-operative surgical office consultation weeks prior to surgery and was apprised of the surgical risks, including bleeding, infection, injury to organs, anastomotic leak, need for temporary (or permanent) ostomy, pain or injury to nerves affecting urinary or sexual function. There was no documented discussion of potential use of an experimental device or the associated risks of such mechanical devices to be utilized during the surgery. A day before the surgery, the patient was admitted for bowel prep. The morning of the surgery, the surgeon again reviewed how the procedure would be performed and described the associated risks. Meanwhile, two representatives of a stapling device vendor requested access to the OR to oversee the trial of a new stapler. The hospital's policy for vendor access to the OR required approval by the Materials Department for use of trial devices, after which the representatives could be provided ID badges for access to the OR suite. In this case, the attending surgeon informed the vendors that they must obtain an ID badge to gain access to the OR without clearly articulating the steps for approval of trial devices. When the vendors returned to the OR with ID badges, the surgeon granted them access to the OR.
