Blade for Ricard Retractor 50x58mm

Clinical Application

This blade provides a compact, broad surface for soft-tissue retraction when attached to a Ricard retractor frame. Its 50x58 mm footprint is sized to expose and protect wound edges in small- to medium-sized incisions, making it useful for general surgery, plastic and reconstructive procedures, ENT, and other cases where controlled, atraumatic retraction of soft tissues is required. The blade distributes retraction forces across a wider area to reduce focal tissue pressure and improve visualization of the operative field.

Design & Configuration

The flat, rectangular geometry yields a stable retraction platform that resists rotation and provides predictable exposure when mounted. The moderate 50x58 mm footprint balances surface area and access: large enough to retract and shield tissues effectively, yet compact enough for use in confined or superficial operative sites. The mounting interface is specified for use with Ricard retractor frames, allowing quick attachment and secure positioning during procedures.

Instrument Specifications
