I have recently started working for a plastic surgeons office and sometimes need to help out in the OR. I have no OR experience. Mainly they ask me to open something or grab an instrument or sutures. I was asked to scrub a patient for breast aug and tacking and wasn't really sure of the proper technique. Can anyone give me some pointers?

I work pre/post. I just happened to help out in the OR at times. I would never do anything I wasn't comfortable with. I was just curious if there was a proper technique to scrub. I did ask the people that I work with and I feel everyone does it a little different. I didn't know if there was a certain technique or not.
