1 6 O U T P AT I E N T S U R G E R Y M A G A Z I N E O N L I N E | M A R C H 2 0 1 4 IDEAS That Work A t our busy ENT practice, we position many of our patients with shoulder rolls. On any given day we may use up to 16 rolled sheets, which not only take time to roll, but which also signifi- cantly increase our laundry costs. We recently started using a 1000cc bag of saline as a shoulder roll. We've marked the bag as SHOULDER ROLL ONLY. It's not only the perfect size, but you can easily wipe it off between cases and use it indefinitely.
