A receiver for disposing of used surgical sharps particularly needles and scalpel blades, comprising an adhesive-coated, rectangular backing panel having a cover panel and two matrix panels attached along the sides thereof. The matrix panels have cut-out windows of different sizes to accommodate the surgical sharps. In use, one matrix panel is removed and discarded while the other is folded over and secured to the adhesive-coated side of the backing panel. Used surgical sharps deposited in matrix panel windows are retained on the adhesive coating of the backing panel which forms the floor of the matrix window. When all matrix windows are used, or the surgical procedure is complete, the adhesive coated cover panel is folded over the matrix panel to seal the matrix windows and the sharps contained therein. Preferably, the cover panel is transparent to allow the sharps to be visually identified and counted after the receiver is sealed. |
