We opened up our laparotomy pack for emergent surgery and the patient was not in the room yet when we noticed in the large basin inside the laparotomy pack, a small tan brown object in the bowl that should not be there.We took pictures of it and quickly tore down the back table and contained it all within a trash bag and saved it and reopened a new pack after we took the old stuff out of the room.Once again patient was not in the room but the pack was a cmc laparotomy pack deroyal ref number (b)(4), lot number 5363491, expiration date 11-01-2022.Pack and contents not saved.Pictures taken of debris and packing list and are attached to this report.
