surgical tray

Sterile instrument holder

A surgical tray is a flat, sterile container holding the instruments and supplies needed for a medical procedure.

Operating room staff arrange scalpels, forceps, clamps, and sutures on the tray in a specific order for efficient access during surgery.

The tray keeps everything organized and within the sterile field: The nurse prepared the surgical tray before the operation began.
