Surgical Tech Study Guide

Turn surgical tech prep into audio covering sterile technique, surgical procedures, instrumentation, and patient care.

Benefits

• Master sterile technique — Audio explains sterile field creation, gowning, gloving, and contamination prevention.
• Understand surgical procedures — Hear step-by-step surgical procedures with instrumentation and team roles.
• Learn instrumentation — Audio covers surgical instruments by category with usage and passing techniques.

How It Works

1. Upload surgical tech materials — Upload your AST textbook or CST exam prep guide.
2. Organize by topic — Generate audio for sterile technique, procedures, instruments, and patient care.
3. Listen to OR concepts — Surgical procedures and instrumentation during commutes.
4. Quiz on procedures — AI generates questions on sterile technique and surgical steps.
5. Voice chat for scenarios — Discuss surgical case scenarios and complication responses.

Features
