Clinical Application
Designed to securely grasp, manipulate and retrieve catheters during insertion, exchange and removal procedures. The instrument is intended for use in vascular access, urology, interventional radiology and other catheter-based workflows where controlled grip and torque are required without damaging the catheter lumen or lumen wall. Its length provides reach for bedside, operative and fluoroscopic procedures while keeping the operator's hand away from the sterile field.
Design & Configuration
The T-shaped geometry provides a lateral gripping axis that improves torque control and resistance to rotation when advancing or withdrawing catheters. The handle layout supports single-hand operation and stable control during delicate maneuvers. A slim shaft profile minimizes obstruction in confined operative fields and allows the jaws to approach catheters at shallow angles, reducing the risk of inadvertent catheter deformation.
