DeBakey Bulldog Atraumatic Fcps 90

Clinical Application

Provides temporary occlusion and atraumatic control of small to medium-caliber vessels during vascular, cardiovascular, transplant, and microvascular procedures. The spring‑action bulldog design allows rapid single-handed application and removal, facilitating anastomosis, vessel dissection, and local hemostasis while minimizing intimal trauma.

Design & Configuration

The spring-loaded bulldog configuration delivers consistent, controlled clamping force without a locking ratchet, allowing quick placement and release. DeBakey-style atraumatic jaws use longitudinal micro-grooves to distribute pressure along the vessel wall rather than concentrating it at points, reducing the risk of endothelial damage. The low-profile jaw geometry preserves operative field visibility and fine manual control during microsurgical tasks.
