Kidney trays are an essential tool in medical facilities such as hospitals, doctor's offices, and nursing homes. Their characteristic, kidney-shaped tray form is not only eponymous but also functional, allowing for easy handling. They are used to collect and provide liquids, small medical instruments, or waste products during medical procedures.

Function and Application Areas of Kidney Trays

Kidney trays are primarily used for the following purposes:

1. Collecting fluids: During surgical procedures or medical treatments, such as dressing changes, kidney trays are used to collect blood, saliva, or other body fluids. Their flat and curved shape makes them ideal for positioning directly on the patient.
2. Providing instruments: Surgeons and nursing staff use kidney trays to have sterile instruments, swabs or medications within reach without compromising sterility.
3. Disposal of medical waste: After a procedure, kidney trays are also used for disposing of used materials such as bandages, syringes or swabs. Their shape makes it easy to safely collect and dispose of these wastes.

Different Types of Kidney Trays

Kidney trays come in various designs that vary depending on the area of application and requirements:

• Cardboard kidney trays: These disposable trays are particularly popular in hospitals and doctor's offices because they are disposed of after a single use, requiring no cleaning or sterilization measures. These disposable products are lightweight, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly as they are biodegradable.
• Stainless steel kidney trays: These durable and sterilizable trays are often used in surgical departments. They are robust, resistant, and can be sterilized multiple times after use.
• Plastic kidney trays: This variant combines the advantages of disposable and reusable trays. They are lightweight, stable, and generally reusable as they can be sterilized.
