Hirst's Placenta Fcps cvd 7mm, 27.5cm

Clinical Application

Hirst's-pattern placenta forceps are intended for use in obstetric procedures to securely grasp placental tissue and fetal membranes for controlled traction during third-stage labor and removal of retained products. The instrument's length and curved profile facilitate access into the uterine cavity during vaginal deliveries, allowing clinicians to engage and extract placental tissue while maintaining tactile control and minimizing undue uterine manipulation.

Design & Configuration

The curved shaft follows the anatomic curvature of the uterus, improving visualization and alignment of the jaws with the placental surface. A 7 mm jaw width provides a relatively slim profile for atraumatic insertion through the cervix and focused contact area for secure gripping. The 27.5 cm overall length offers sufficient reach for intrauterine work while keeping the operator’s hands away from the surgical field.
