Instrument damage is more than just a headache—it’s costly, disruptive, and far more common than most realize. So, how can we prevent it before it even happens? In Episode 2 of our “Process Better” series, Tory Teakell, Clinical Solutions Manager at Medline, joins us to explore the most common causes of instrument damage across surgical workflows— and how better care, handling, and training can reduce damage and raise the bar for quality. From transport to assembly and back again, Tori walks us through practical steps to protect your SPD’s instruments and your bottom line.
