Circulating Nurse
I think the 'SR' might be Schwester for nurse or sister. The circulating nurse, I think, sees to the general comfort of the patient but is not designated in the OP room as sterile. If an instrument gets dropped, for example, it becomes unsterile and it is the Circulating Nurse who picks it up. I'm not sure here but perhaps this is what is meant by 'Beidienst'. I can't find it in my PONS medical dictionary but there are a few google hits for 'Beidienst'

The Instrumenten. SR, by comparison, would be designated as \'sterile\' and therefore handles the instruments for the operation.

: Since this is specific to theatres, 'circulating nurse' or even 'runner' is a term more likely to be used, at least in the UK.
