Dale Peripheral Vascular Clamp 18.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed for temporary occlusion of peripheral arteries and veins, this clamp is used to control blood flow during vascular exposure, vessel dissection, anastomosis, thrombectomy, and creation or revision of AV access. Its atraumatic jaw profile allows surgeons to occlude vessels with reduced risk of intimal injury, making it suitable for delicate peripheral vascular work and soft-tissue hemostasis in limb and endovascular access procedures.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a classic ring-handle design with a ratchet locking mechanism to permit secure, graduated closure and hands-free vessel control. At 18.5 cm overall length the shaft provides a balance of reach and tactile control—long enough for access in deeper peripheral fields yet compact enough for fine manipulation during anastomosis. The atraumatic jaw geometry is intended to distribute occlusive pressure along the vessel wall rather than concentrating it, which helps preserve vessel integrity during temporary clamping.
