How should sterile technicians assemble instrument trays?

By memorizing the instruments
Identifying tools against surgical schedule
Verifying instruments with patients
Identifying and verifying instruments against count sheet

The correct answer is: Identifying and verifying instruments against count sheet

Sterile technicians should assemble instrument trays by identifying and verifying instruments against the count sheet. This process ensures that all the necessary instruments are included in the tray as per the surgical requirements and helps in preventing errors during the procedure. Option A is not the most effective method as relying solely on memorization can lead to mistakes. Option B is not the best choice as it may not provide accurate information about the specific instruments needed for a particular procedure. Option C is not a recommended practice as instruments should be checked against a count sheet rather than relying on patient verification.
