-
Prepackaged collections (either custom or standard) of the necessary equipment and supplies for healthcare personnel to use for thorough cleaning and hard rubbing (i.e., scrubbing) of the hands and arms before surgery or other procedures that require a certain level of cleansing by participating personnel in order to reduce/prevent the transmission of infection to patients. These trays (also known as kits) typically include a scrub brush impregnated with an antimicrobial soap/solution (e.g., povidone-iodine, chloroxylenol, etc.) and are packaged as single-use, sterile items.
