Rochester Ochsner Fcps str 20cm

Clinical Application

Rochester Ochsner straight forceps are designed to provide a secure, traumatic grip on dense soft tissue, fascia, and large pedicles. They are commonly used in general, thoracic, and abdominal surgery for tissue manipulation, traction during dissection, and for temporarily securing large bleeding points when a strong mechanical hold is required. Because of their interlocking toothed jaws, they are not intended for fine vascular control or delicate structures such as nerves or small vessels.

Design & Configuration

The straight geometry gives direct alignment between the operator’s hand and the tip, improving control when applying traction or maintaining exposure in open procedures. The ratchet-lock handle and robust box-lock provide reliable clamping force and repeatable locking engagement. Interlocking serrated/toothed jaws produce a firm, non-slip purchase on bulky or slippery tissue—useful when withdrawing specimens, securing tissue for ligation, or holding sponges and packs.
