Surgical tray optimization represents a relatively simple microsystem improvement that could result in significant hospital cost reduction. Although difficult to quantify, other gains from surgical kit optimization include decreased weight per tray, decreased materials cost, and decreased labor required to count, decontaminate, and pack surgical trays.
