Prepackaged collections of the devices and supplies (either custom or standard kits) needed for visualizing the arteries during special radiography procedures (i.e., special procedure angiography). Items in these kits usually include drapes, gowns, plastic syringes, connecting tubing, gauge needles, scalpels, gauze, towels and bowls; kits may also include a povidone-iodine packet, swab sticks and puncture site bandages. 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. Special procedure angiography procedure kits and trays are intended for use during interventions such as stent placements, discography, placement of permanent vascular access ports and peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs), and placement of devices/grafts for dialysis access.
