ABSTRACT:
An autoclave tray for sterilization of surgical components and equipment includes slotted, polysulfone holders each having a base portion, a body portion and a connecting portion wherein the connecting portion is narrower than both the base portion and the body portion, the body portion being designed to receive and hold at least one surgical component, a tray arranged with oblong slots for receiving and holding one or more synthetic holders wherein the oblong slots include a narrow channel portion and an enlarged keyhole portion. The holders may be positioned in the oblong slots by passing the leading edge of the base portion through the enlarged keyhole portion of the slot and sliding the connecting portion along and within the narrow channel portion. The tray further includes a plurality of steam holes disposed about the surface of the tray. The body portion of the holder includes a pair of parallel and vertically extending receiving slots wherein each slot is similarly configured with a pair of spaced-apart cylindrical clearance areas and a narrower connecting channel open at its uppermost extreme and connecting the uppermost edge of the receiving portion with the two cylindrical clearance areas. Each cylindrical clearance area is suitably designed to receive and retain a portion of a surgical component wherein receipt of two such surgical components by the same vertical slot is performed in such a manner that neither component is able to contact the other.
