Abstract/OtherAbstract:
An essential component of any clinical intervention or clinically invasive procedure in the perioperative setting will involve the use of instruments. It is therefore essential that all practitioners in the perioperative setting are able to identify the instruments required for a case, for both preparation and checking purposes, be able to verify the sterility of the instrument and/or set, and be aware of the actions to be taken if any problems arise.
