Brainbridge Atrauma blood vessel clamp 15cm

Clinical Application

Provides atraumatic temporary occlusion and manipulation of small-to-medium blood vessels during procedures that require fine vessel handling and hemostasis. Commonly used in vascular, microvascular, and soft-tissue dissections to control bleeding while minimizing intimal damage. The instrument’s atraumatic jaw surfaces make it appropriate for procedures where preservation of vessel integrity is critical.

Design & Configuration

The 15 cm length balances reach and tactile control for working in confined operative fields while maintaining instrument ergonomics. A ratcheted ring-handle configuration permits secure locking at incremental closure positions, enabling consistent clamping pressure without continuous manual force. Atraumatic jaw geometry reduces focal compression and shear on the vessel wall, helping to preserve endothelium during temporary occlusion and manipulation.
