Glover Bulldog clamp Atrauma str 7.0cm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide temporary vascular occlusion in procedures where controlled, atraumatic clamping is required. The straight, compact geometry and atraumatic jaw surfaces make this clamp suitable for microvascular anastomosis, coronary and peripheral bypass grafting, vessel preparation during endarterectomy, and other surgical steps that require brief occlusion of small- to medium-caliber arteries or veins without crushing the vessel wall. Its low profile reduces interference in crowded operative fields, allowing better visualization and manipulation adjacent to the clamp.

Design & Configuration

The straight configuration offers direct, axial occlusive force suitable for standard-line access to exposed vessels. As a bulldog-style instrument, it uses a spring-action design for rapid single-handed application and reliable bite pressure. Atraumatic jaw surfaces distribute pressure across the vessel to minimize intimal injury while maintaining effective hemostasis. The 7.0 cm overall length balances reach and control—long enough to access vessels within the operative field but short enough to remain unobtrusive during delicate maneuvers.
