Clinical Application
Designed to provide atraumatic, non-crushing occlusion of the intestinal lumen during open abdominal procedures. Common applications include temporary isolation of bowel segments for resection and anastomosis, control of luminal flow during enterotomy or inspection, and gentle tissue stabilization during mobilization or stoma creation. The atraumatic jaws help preserve serosal integrity and mesenteric blood flow, reducing the risk of tissue injury at clamp sites.
Design & Configuration
The Doyen pattern features elongated, gently contoured blades that distribute clamping force along the bowel wall to achieve secure occlusion without focal crushing. The 16 cm overall length balances reach and control for use in confined operative fields. A longitudinal grip surface on the jaws enhances tissue purchase while minimizing trauma, and the slim profile improves visibility and access when working in narrow operative corridors.
Instrument Specifications
