    Eliminating OR Pain Points through Expert Tray Assembly - Webinar

    Understanding, compassion, and supportive actions build strong relationships. Nowhere is this truer than between the operating room and the sterile processing department. A sterile processing task, such as the position of an instrument on a stringer, can impact compliance, efficiencies, and patient safety in the operating room. Join Senior Clinical Education Specialist at STERIS, Arthur Henderson, as he discusses understanding the OR needs and how implementing good tray assembly techniques in sterile processing can help reduce pain points and build  a strong relationship between these departments.

    Objectives:

    • List items used during tray assembly that help meet the surgical team’s needs
    • Describe differences in tray assembly between steam and vaporized hydrogen peroxide sterilization
    • Identify key sterilization packaging steps that aid aseptic transfer of contents in the OR
