A modular casing for transporting sterile surgical instruments

Summary
There is not yet a good way of transporting sterile surgical instruments in DIN baskets between instrument manufacturers, central sterilization departments, and care facilities. Maintaining the sterile barrier with current transportation methods is not reliable. Current methods are also wasteful or difficult to use. This thesis shows how to translate these problems into a reusable and reliable solution in the form of a product. This modular casing fits around DIN baskets of different dimensions, and fits inside current transportation containers of different dimensions. The novel system allows DIN baskets, with sterile surgical instruments inside, to be transported between instrument manufacturers, central sterilization departments, and care facilities.
