ABSTRACT:
A cadaver preparation station which is particularly adapted for embalming and dissecting a cadaver is provided with a pair of air exhaust vents in the form of longitudinal slits mounted on a tray support so as to extending along either side of a tray on which the cadaver rests. The air exhaust vents eliminate noxious and potentially carcinogenic formaldehyde fumes, as well as reduce offensive odors. The tray has a drain hole therethrough which, when the tray is installed on the tray support, is disposed over a sink. A deployable system of flush fluid conduits with nozzles affixed thereto maintain a fluid flush on the tray. Thus, excess embalming fluid, tissues, and discharges from the cadaver are caused to flow along the tray and through its drain hole into the sink. The sink has a rim flush system associated therewith for maintaining a continuous water flush. A comminuting arrangement in the drain of the sink facilitates disposal of tissues and clots. The cadaver preparation station is adapted to supply chemicals necessary for processing the cadaver from bulk chemical supplies, thereby achieving economy and convenience. The same tray is used for cadaver storage in a multi-cadaver refrigeration unit, and there is further provided a mobile carrier for facilitating transportation of the cadaver between the refrigeration unit and the cadaver preparation station.
