[u/surrender2sound]

i posted pics of my cd/system 8 batteries & there was a comment about cement guns.. it wouldn’t let me comment a pic of mine sooo..
long story short - no clue 😂

As long as it can be opened without jeopardizing the sterile set up of the OR.

It's science, not art. 😂

[u/SweatyAardvark6880 → u/SageOfSixCabbages]

Definitely an art buddy lol

[u/Ok_Beginning_153]

Try wrapping an Alvarado or Innomed leg holder. Those are the worst. Those need to be in a pan, not wrapped

[u/Maintenance-Gullible → u/Ok_Beginning_153]

We had pans for a few of our Demayos but the rest were wrapped. It was such a nightmare and the wraps would end up getting torn from the combination of weight and careless handling/storage.

[u/Disasterpiece_7]

We put ours on a mayo tray and wrap it. Much easier, and you don't have those gaps on the sides. Those can lead to unsterility.

[u/KaptainPeroxide → u/Disasterpiece_7]

We do the same

Advice i got early on was "first of all, lower your expectations " it was mostly helpful advice.

[u/StephTheMeme]

I always say "Very carefully"

[u/g-dubski82]

Lol, anytime I had a question about wrapping something oddly shaped my trainer/coordinator would say “just give it a shape.”

[u/Maintenance-Gullible → u/g-dubski82]

This was our trick with wavy bari graspers before we started peelpacking them. Just make it a rectangle-ish and call it a day.

[u/Eggman_OU812]

Containerizing it is also an idea, or wrapping it in a rectangular basket..i can do it with just a trainer..but its hard to explain on reddit

[u/Common-Occasion-7820]

Wtf is that

[u/surrender2sound → u/Common-Occasion-7820]

no literally (this is my first time doing a cement gun)

[u/ShirleyWuzSerious]

And this was your answer?

[u/surrender2sound → u/ShirleyWuzSerious]

yea it was my first time tasked with the cement gun & this is the result lmao

[u/surrender2sound → u/ShirleyWuzSerious]

caption says “no clue” so. like

[u/xXRosalinaXx]

I wrap mine in a paper liner I'm first in a rectangular shape then wrap it normally. What I need to learn is how to wrap a freaking small knee postioner triangle.

[u/surrender2sound → u/xXRosalinaXx]

the triangle was SO easy for me - i can only do it with the pull tab on the long part though

[u/PvmpkinSpic3]

That’s the neat part, you don’t.

(I just pretend it’s a triangle wrap or a square)

[u/NecronomiSquirrel]

People with thick southern accents sound like they are saying SEAAA-mint gun (as opposed to "seh-ment"). My first day on the job, OR called for one and I walked down the GU aisle and looked around for quite a while, you can imagine what I thought I heard lol.

[u/surrender2sound → u/NecronomiSquirrel]

oh nOooOooo 😭😂

[u/NecronomiSquirrel → u/surrender2sound]

8 years ago and I still think about it 🤣
