Berry & Kohn's Operating Room Technique, 14th Edition, provides foundational instruction in surgical principles and perioperative care. The textbook highlights cooperation among perioperative team members to foster positive patient outcomes across inpatient and ambulatory settings.

The volume addresses individualized patient care by exploring physiologic, psychologic, and spiritual factors, including considerations for pediatric and geriatric populations. The authors also outline the fundamentals of perioperative nursing and surgical technology roles alongside aseptic technique, surgical equipment, and operating room environments.
