Prepackaged collections (either custom or standard) of devices and supplies designed for use typically as disposable components of injectors intended for automated injection of radiopaque fluids into the arteries and/or veins for viewing the cardiac and/or surrounding vasculature (i.e., angiography). Items in these kits usually include a pressure monitor tubing, a micro filter, a coronary control syringe, a solid plunger, a swivel nut connector, syringes filled with saline/lidocaine solutions, a temporary sharps holder, angiographic needles, a regular bevel scalpel, a medicine cup, and a guide wire bowl; kits may also include curved forceps, gauze pads, cloth towels, towel clamps, sponge sticks, a back table cover, and a femoral drape. The kits are frequently supplied in supporting trays (i.e., procedure trays) consisting of a 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. Angiography procedure kits and trays are intended for use during angiographic procedures.
