interventions chirurgicales. Il permet ainsi l'isolement temporaire/définitif ainsi que la e présentation desdits matériels selon qu'ils sont destinés à être éliminés (positionnement dans l'espace aimanté (2)) ou réutilisés (positionnement en piquélancrage dans la mousse (3) en stockage attente/présentation dans les compartiments prévus à cet effet 10a, 1 Ob). Il est d'autre part possible de le fixer au revêtement de la table d'instrumentation grâce à un système adhésif (13)... de limiter son encombrement en le scindant en deux demies boites distinctes par section des charnières latérales (11). The purpose of the device (1) is to provide spatial and physical security for sharp and / or sharp medical equipment used by health personnel during

surgical procedures. It thus allows temporary / permanent isolation as well as the e presentation of said materials according to whether they are intended to be eliminated (positioning in the magnetic space (2)) or reused (positioning in pick-up in the foam (3) in storage. waiting / presentation in the compartments provided for this purpose 10a, 1 Ob). It is also possible to fix it to the coating of the instrumentation table with an adhesive system (13) ... to limit its size by dividing it into two separate half boxes per section of the side hinges (11).

The device (1) which comprises on the external bottom of the hemies boxes (1a, 1b) an original system allowing the adhesiveness of the device to the support on which it is arranged: in studs (fig 1) (13) of which the adhesive part / self-adhesive is peelable. This provides stability to the device during use.

The device (1) which comprises on the internal bottom of one of the compartments: a magnet (2) (fig 1), allowing the temporary or permanent magnetic trapping of sensitive metallic ferrous medical objects which have been in contact or not with the tissues biological human The device (1) allows, by anchoring the material in a foam (3) (fig 1) at appropriate density and thickness, to present the medical devices (scalpel blades, sutured needles waiting to serve and / or Depending on the variants, note the presence of a grid on the surface of the foam in order to allow / facilitate the classification by category of the medical devices presented (fig 5): pointed needles, triangular, round, tapercuts, spools of sutures , blades of the various scalpels
