Surgical Tray Optimization
FY 2022-23 · 2022-11-01
Summary
Tray optimization provides a way for residents, surgeons, and hospital organizations to accurately understand and then optimize the allocation of instruments in the surgical tray. In the status quo, tray instrument decisions are guided by offline preference cards that frequently become outdated, leading to trays that contain superfluous items and incur unnecessary reprocessing and sterilization costs.

Description
Tray optimization provides a way for residents, surgeons, and hospital organizations to accurately understand and then optimize the allocation of instruments in the surgical tray. In the status quo, tray instrument decisions are guided by offline preference cards that frequently become outdated, leading to trays that contain superfluous items and incur unnecessary reprocessing and sterilization costs.
Description (French)
L’optimisation du plateau chirurgical permet aux résidents, aux chirurgiens et aux organisations hospitalières de comprendre avec précision et d’optimiser la répartition des instruments dans le plateau chirurgical. Dans le statu quo, les décisions relatives aux instruments du plateau sont guidées par des cartes de préférence hors ligne qui deviennent fréquemment obsolètes, ce qui conduit à des plateaux contenant des éléments superflus et entraînant des coûts de retraitement et de stérilisation inutiles.
