ABSTRACT:
A collection tray for use in pelvic procedures includes a single piece molded plastic tray having a planar portion, a basin portion, and a live hinge therebetween. The basin portion is preferably provided with a central drain which is adapted to be coupled to a vacuum line. The basin portion is preferably provided with one or more clip structures for holding an irrigation fluid tube so that irrigation fluid may be easily directed toward the site of the procedure. The tray is preferably manufactured by vacuum forming techniques and the outer edge of the basin portion is preferably rolled down to provide a smooth edge and enhanced structural support. A kit containing the tray includes a fluid collection system and an irrigation system having an articulatable nozzle.
