Interster Instrument Protector

Description

Interster Instrument Protector, also referred to as Instru Protector, is a protective accessory designed for sharp, fragile, or delicate surgical instruments during the sterilisation process. It is used to cover instrument tips and edges to help reduce damage to both the instruments and the surrounding sterile barrier materials.

By shielding exposed sharp points, this protector helps minimise punctures, tears, and holes in sterilisation packaging. It also supports safer handling by helping protect staff and users from sharps injury when instruments are being prepared, packed, transported, or presented for use.

Usage Notes

This accessory is intended for use as part of instrument preparation for sterilisation, particularly where exposed sharp edges may compromise packaging integrity or handling safety. Plasma compatibility has been mentioned in one relevant source, but this is not consistently confirmed across validated references.
