Clinical Application
Designed for atraumatic handling of dressings, sponges and sterile materials, these forceps are intended for use during dressing changes, wound packing, sponge placement and routine handling tasks in the operating room, emergency department, clinic and ambulatory surgery center. The 25 cm length provides additional reach for deeper wounds or larger procedural fields while keeping hands clear of the sterile zone.
Design & Configuration
The fluted handle provides tactile texture across the shank to improve control during one-handed manipulation, minimizing slippage when gloves are wet or bloody. The thumb-forceps arrangement allows precise fingertip control for picking up and placing dressings or sponges without the bulk of larger graspers. The 25 cm overall length balances reach and maneuverability for common dressing and wound-care tasks.
