    Hi Everyone

    We have been reviewing our compliance with AS:4187, and were wondering how other organisations manage the storage of RMDs in ICUs (e.g. sternotomy sets) that may be needed in an emergency?

    Any information would be greatly appreciated!

    Kind regards
    Mary

    Hi Mary,

    Where storage conditions may be less than ideal a good risk mitigation strategy is to place the packaged RMDs in a dust cover.
