You'll Have Sterility Covered With This Back
Table Cover
The Sterile-Z™ Back Table Cover protects instruments before
or during procedures and helps maintain the sterile field during
application and removal. It's designed to comply with the 2019
AORN guidelines that state, "The sterile field should be
covered if it will not be immediately used or during periods of
increased activity." (AORN Guideline for Sterile Technique, In:
Guidelines for Perioperative Practice. Denver, CO: AORN, Inc.
2018 electronic release).
Sterile-Z Back Table Cover's unique features allow it to
maintain the sterility of surgical instruments and reduce the risk
of contamination while they're not in use. You should cover
your back table during any period of increased activity, double
set-ups, clean closures or delays.

Convert Your Scope Cabinets Into Drying
Systems With This Device
Turn an existing scope cabinet or closet into a powerful drying
system and prevent cross-contamination with the Dri-Scope
Aid Cabinet from TRICOR Systems. Automatically dry up to
16 endoscopes with HEPA-filtered air. Internal channels
receive constant air flow and consistent pressure. Run the
system between procedures and overnight. Studies show that
automated forced-air drying is far superior to manual
compressed air for preventing microbial colonization in lumens.
