Clinical Application
Provides controlled temporary occlusion of small vessels and pedicles during dissecting, anastomosis, grafting, and localized hemostasis. The atraumatic jaw profile is intended to minimize intimal injury, making it suitable for microvascular, ophthalmic, plastic, and general surgical procedures where gentle vessel handling and a compact clamp are required.
Design & Configuration
The spring-loaded bulldog design delivers reliable closing force in a compact, low-profile form that preserves the operative field and line of sight. Atraumatic jaws distribute pressure across the vessel wall rather than concentrating it at a point, reducing the risk of crush injury. The 5 cm overall length gives adequate reach in confined fields while maintaining fine control for delicate tasks.
