Measuring and Marking Equipment

Performance Checklist

Measuring and Marking Equipment:

  1. Name measurement tools
  2. Use metric and standard measurement tools
  3. Identify differences in size by sight, e.g., 3/8″ is longer than 3/16″, which is also longer than 5/32″ (Later, select appropriate thicknesses of plastics and foams for clinical application.)
  4. Consistently document units of measure
