Abstract
A surgical stand has a support post in a substantially vertical orientation. A frame extends from the support post in a substantially horizontal orientation. A disposable tray has a first deck that rests on and is supported by the frame. A second deck is connected to and transversely spaced apart from the first deck, such that at least lateral access to both the first and second support surfaces is provided.

A stand, comprising:
- a support post configured to be oriented in a substantially vertical orientation;
- a frame extending from the support post and configured to be oriented in a substantially horizontal orientation;
- a tray that is disposable and has a proximal end located adjacent the support post and a distal end opposite the proximal end, a longitudinal direction extends between the proximal and distal ends, a lateral direction is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, such that both the longitudinal and lateral directions are substantially horizontal, and a transverse direction perpendicular to both the longitudinal and lateral directions that is substantially vertical;
- and the tray further comprises:
- a first deck that is complementary in shape to the frame and configured to be supported by the frame, the first deck having a first support surface;
- and
- a second deck connected to the first deck, the second deck having a second support surface that is transversely spaced apart from the first deck, such that at least lateral access to both the first and second support surfaces is provided.
