Sponge Holder 2.5mm, 28cm

Clinical Application

Designed to hold sponges and surgical gauze securely while enabling controlled application of pressure, packing of deep cavities, and blunt tissue manipulation. Its narrow tip geometry is intended for precise placement in confined operative fields and for atraumatic handling of dressings during general, trauma, obstetrics/gynecology, and many minor surgical procedures.

Design & Configuration

The instrument features a long-shaft ring-handle configuration with a ratchet locking mechanism to maintain a secure hold on sponge material without continuous manual force. The 2.5 mm tip profile provides a narrower contact point than standard sponge holders, improving access in deeper or more constrained spaces while minimizing bulk at the tissue interface. The ratchet allows the operator to set and release grip quickly, supporting efficient sponge exchanges and temporary retraction.
