Article - Surgical Instrument Repair: "Surgical Instrument Surgeons"
As with any tool, surgical instruments and medical systems are subject to wear and tear, and the more delicate a precision piece of equipment is, the more damage it may sustain throughout the course of normal use. Naturally, the constant replacement of aging and overused equipment would be budgetary disaster. A much more reasonable approach to maintaining instrument and equipment quality, and protecting a facility’s investment, is to have deteriorating equipment repaired.
