Brief Summary

In the Toulouse University Hospital, the Custom Surgical Tray (CST) were not referenced. The nurse had to prepare and open all the components of the procedure separately. This is a long and wasteful process. CST brings together all the single-use medical devices necessary for an intervention, including draping and dressing elements, in the same single packaging. Following the new local call for tenders on draping kits, and with the aim of standardizing and rationalizing practices, the implementation of CST within the requesting blocks whose orthopedic and traumatology block has been validated. The hypothesis is that the CST would save time on preparing the trolley and on opening single-use equipment in the room while limiting the amount of waste.

Study Arms (2)

control group

The medical staff was using the traditional surgical draping kit and single-packed sterile instruments (SPSI) that have to be opened separately

Procedure: Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction (ACLR)

experimental group

The medical staff was using only the single packed CST, and containing all the necessary single-use items like surgical blades, sutures, dressing, surgical drapes, syringes, compresses, surgical gloves, jerseys.

Procedure: Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction (ACLR)

Interventions

Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction (ACLR) PROCEDURE

A comparison between the two groups were done regarding the three following stages: (a) the preparation time of the trolley, which is the time taken by the CNOR to recover from the reserves all the single-packed sterile instruments (SPSI) necessary for the intervention or to recover the CST (b) the opening time of the instruments by the circulating nurse who opens the packages and gives them to the surgical nurse while respecting the sterility of the items, and by the surgical nurse who prepares the table for the intervention, and (c) the sorting time of the waste between plastic and paper at the end of the intervention.
