GLOVE DONNING SYSTEM
A glove donning system including glove assemblies is provided that maintains the cleanliness of a glove until the glove is utilized. In addition, the glove donning system assists a user during a donning process thereby preventing contamination of the glove during the donning process.
System and method for modular component sterilization case
A modular component container system includes a plurality of case walls and a plurality of connectors. Each of the connectors includes at least two connector elements that mechanically connect to the case walls. The system also includes at least one latch connector having a latch connector element. The latch connector element mechanically connects to one of the case walls. A latch is movably oriented relative to the latch connector element. The latch releasably engages another of the case walls.
NO TOUCH STERILE MEDICAL DEVICE PACKAGING
A packaging assembly may retain a sterile medical device for use in a surgical setting, such as an orthopedic implant or instrument. The packaging assembly may have a first packaging component and a second packaging component. The first packaging component and the second packaging component may be attachable to each other to define a first interior space containing the medical device. The first packaging component may have a first retention feature that defines a first interior receptacle shaped to receive at least part of the medical device such that a user can manually grip the medical device through the first retention feature. The first first interior space may be manually opened by a user grasping the medical device through the first retention feature.
Sterile enclosure for a hand-held electronic device and methods of using thereof
A sterile enclosure to bring a non-sterile hand-held electronic device such as a smartphone or a tablet into a sterile field comprises a rigid frame, a rigid base and a device holder configured to accept the hand-held device thereon. The use of the device holder to contain the hand-held device prior to engaging with the base and positioning the device therein, allows avoiding contamination of sterile components during use. A sterility indicator is also provided to continuously monitor the sterile enclosure for a possible breach in sterility while inside the sterile field.
System and Method for Packaging and Preparing a Radiofrequency Ablation Kit
A system for packaging a kit for a radiofrequency ablation procedure protects a radiofrequency ablation kit without compromising its sterile barrier system through the hazards of handling, distribution, and storage. The system includes: an introducer tray configured to hold at least one introducer; a probe tray configured to hold at least one radiofrequency ablation probe; an outer carrier tray, a pouch configured to hold a tubing kit; and a dispenser carton. The introducer tray and the probe tray are held within the outer carrier tray, and the outer carrier tray and the pouch are configured to be held within the dispenser carton. A method of packaging a radiofrequency ablation kit is further described.
SHEET METAL HANDLE, AND COVER WITH SHEET METAL HANDLE
A handle, preferably for a lid of a medical sieve basket, and a method of forming a handle. The handle includes a base body having a handle bar and at least one holding portion adjoining the handle bar, and at least one eyelet-shaped or bent fixing lug arranged at an end of the holding portion opposite the handle bar for pivotal mounting of the handle. The base body is formed of a planar sheet metal that includes at least one lug-like projection at the end of the holding portion opposite the handle bar. The projection is bent to form the fixing lug. The handle can be pivotally secured to a lid.
Catheter insertion tray with integrated instructions
An improved medical procedure or catheterization tray included in an improved medical procedure or catheterization package. The improved medical procedure or catheterization tray is intuitively arranged and includes instructions printed thereon to improve the medical procedure or catheterization implementation and results. In one example, a catheterization package and catheterization tray has a layout and/or arrangement of components that may help reduce CAUTI rates by facilitating ease of use and aiding in proper aseptic technique during insertion. The medical procedure or catheterization package and/or medical procedure or catheterization tray may include various implements, compartments, and components necessary and/or helpful to the medical procedure or catheterization, including, for example, improved swabs and an improved compartment for holding the swabs.
Membrane packaging for sterile, medical objects
Container with a membrane packaging for medical objects, consisting of at least one cover which is connectable to a lower part, wherein at least one clamping membrane is circumferentially and peripherally attached to at least one container part, and the object to be protected lies upon the at least one clamping membrane and is borne by it, wherein only one clamping membrane, is given, which lies opposite to a fixed holding slot for holding the object on the other container part and an additional pretensioning can be applied to the clamping membrane upon closing of the container.
C-arm cap
A cap for a c-arm medical imaging device with an image intensifier comprises a plate sized and shaped to cover an exterior facing surface of the image intensifier. The plate is transparent to x-rays and has a planar center with a planar outer surface and a planar inner surface to face the image intensifier. A retainer is carried by the plate to retain the plate on the image intensifier.
System and method for packaging medical containers
A packaging system for medical containers having a main opening, comprising: a vessel having a shoulder; a tray provided with cavities that is intended for receiving a medical container and rests on the shoulder; a plurality of caps that close the main opening; and a lid that seals the vessel. A method for packaging medical containers, comprises the following steps: providing a vessel; arranging a tray on the shoulder of the vessel; arranging medical containers in the cavities; arranging a cap on the medical containers so as to close the main opening thereof; sealing a lid on an upper edge of the peripheral wall of the vessel; and placing the vessel in at least one sealed bag.
