?:definition
  • Prepackaged collections (either custom or standard) of devices, instruments, and supplies necessary to perform spinal surgery. Items in these kits usually consist of surgical instruments (e.g., knives, forceps) appropriate to the particular surgical procedure and/or technique; the kits may also include supplies (e.g., plastic and/or metal plates, screws and pins). The kits are frequently supplied in supporting trays (i.e., procedure trays) consisting of a metal or plastic flat-bottomed receptacle with a border around the periphery supporting all the instruments and supplies needed for the procedure; the trays are usually covered or wrapped. Spinal surgery kits and trays are intended for spinal open or minimally invasive surgery both in hospital and outpatient facilities; dedicated kits are available for particular procedures such as surgery related to lumbar disc diseases (e.g., herniated discs), kyphosis treatment, and spinal cord traumatic injuries.
