Sharp surgical instrument counters are devices employed in operating rooms to maintain accurate counts of sharp surgical instruments such as needles, blades, and scissors, using magnetism, foam rubber, or similar mechanisms to hold the counted objects in place. These devices are used by operating room staff to prevent instruments from being inadvertently left in a patient and may also serve for temporary storage of instruments during surgery.
