Cooley Multi Purpose Aorta Clamp 17cm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide secure, atraumatic occlusion of large-caliber vessels, this clamp is used for proximal and distal control of the aorta during cardiovascular, thoracic, and major vascular procedures. The 17 cm length balances reach and tactile control, making it suitable for procedures such as median sternotomy, aortic repair, proximal vessel control during bypass grafting, and temporary clamping in hybrid vascular cases where firm, reliable occlusion is required without excessive tissue trauma.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a long-shank, multi-purpose geometry that permits comfortable handling and access in deep or confined operative fields. Broad, atraumatic jaw surfaces distribute clamping force across the vessel to minimize intimal injury while providing effective hemostasis. The overall balance and jaw alignment are optimized to allow precise positioning and sustained occlusion with minimal hand fatigue for the surgeon or assistant.
