A study conducted at three German hospitals in 2002 showed there is great potential to
save costs by the use of custom procedure trays. The savings were estimated as follows:

• Cost of in-house supply processes: reduced by 31.8 %.
• Cost of procurement: reduced by 76.3 %.
• Cost of daily pre-selection of surgical products: reduced by 31.1 %.
• Cost of product-picking for individual surgical procedures: reduced by 57.0 %.
• Operating room set-up time: reduced by 36.6 %.

The use of custom procedure trays increases efficiency in terms of working procedures for theatre staff, logistics systems, theatre turnaround and cost control.

All areas of surgery could benefit from the use. It is
vital that healthcare units and authorities to exploit this potential. They should also constantly strive to further improve systems and processes so that the health care sector can meet the challenges that lie ahead.
