Custom Surgical Tray in ACLR Procedure
- Conditions
- Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
- Interventions
- Procedure: Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction (ACLR)
- Registration Number
- NCT05569889
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Toulouse
- Brief Summary
In the Toulouse University Hospital, the Custom Surgical Tray (CST) were not referenced. The nurse had to prepare and open all the components of the procedure separately. This is a long and wasteful process.
CST brings together all the single-use medical devices necessary for an intervention, including draping and dressing elements, in the same single packaging.
Following the new local call for tenders on draping kits, and with the aim of standardizing and rationalizing practices, the implementation of CST within the requesting blocks whose orthopedic and traumatology block has been validated.
The hypothesis is that the CST would save time on preparing the trolley and on opening single-use equipment in the room while limiting the amount of waste.
- Detailed Description
To determine the social impact, the study assess the quality of life at work by measuring the difference, after implementing CST, in time needed for preparation of the trolley before entering the OR, for opening the instruments necessary by the surgical and circulating certified perioperative nurse (CNOR) in the Operating Room (OR), and for sorting the waste derived from the instrument's packages between plastic and paper after the intervention. In addition, the study assessed the biomechanical risk factors related to musculoskeletal disorders by evaluating the number of movements made by the CNOR when opening the instruments and sorting the waste, with and without CST. Finally, the study evaluate CNOR and surgeon's satisfaction after the implementation of CST.
To determine the ecologic impact, the difference in the number and weight of waste due to packaging of the disposable instruments, with and without CST was evaluated.
To determine the economic impact, the difference in cost of the instruments used, with and without CST was evaluated.
The hypothesis is that the use of CST enhances Sustainable Development (SD) by maintaining social development and environment protection, despite a possible additional cost.
