Leading the Way to Sterile ImplantsThe Sterile Tube concept consists of a solution that uses 2 tubes where one fits into the other to allow a streamlined and secure transfer of sterile implants into the sterile field. The tube shape is similar to the round screw shape, suggesting a “screw rack-like” handling to help with your transi-tion to sterile packed screws.
Tube in Tube Design“Tube in tube” design allows a streamlined and secure transfer into the sterile field.
Screw Holder“Captive screw” holder design allows for a secure implant handling.
Handling and StorageThe shape of the Sterile Tube helps with adoption of this sterile packaging due to a “screw rack-like” handling. The Sterile Tube provides 40%1 more space saving than blister packaging.

TraceabilityThe Sterile Tubes contain 4 patient labels to ensure recording, tracking, and reordering of the product. The sterile packed screws reduce the risk of contamination compared to non-sterile reprocessed screws.
Before using the Sterile Tube detach the labels from the tube by tearing them off at the perforation.
SafetyThe shrink sleeve indicates that the product has not been opened previously and the sterile barrier is still intact. Before using the Sterile Tube, pull the tear strip to open and remove the shrink sleeve.

STERILE TUBE PACKAGING SOLUTION FOR SCREWS
1. Open the Outer TubeCirculating Nurse (non-sterile field): Once the shrink sleeve is removed open the outer tube by unscrewing the outer cap from the outer tube. To maintain sterility do not touch the inner tube.
2. Transfer to the Sterile FieldCirculating Nurse (non-sterile field): Hold the outer cap and point the inner tube towards the sterile field.
Scrub Nurse (sterile field): Remove the inner tube by pulling and if necessary slightly twisting the inner tube back and forth to release it from the outer cap. When twisting the tube, ensure holding on to the tube and not the cap.
Alternative Method (not shown)
Scrub Nurse (sterile field): In case the inner tube cannot be released, unscrew the inner cap and transfer only the screw with the holder into the sterile field.
