Crile Rankin Hemostatic Fcps str 16cm

Clinical Application

Straight hemostatic forceps used to clamp and occlude small-to-medium blood vessels, control bleeding, and temporarily secure tissue during dissection and ligation steps. Their size and straight geometry make them suitable for general surgical procedures, minor vascular control, obstetrics/gynecology, ENT, and outpatient surgery where precise, single-handed vessel control is required.

Design & Configuration

The straight shaft provides a direct approach to vessels and tissues, improving line-of-sight and allowing the surgeon to apply consistent compression along the instrument axis. Serrated jaws create a secure purchase on soft tissue and vessels, while an integrated ratchet lock permits hands-free maintenance of clamping pressure. A 16 cm length balances reach with tactile control for fine manipulation in confined operative fields.
