Johns-Hopkins Haemostatic Fcps str 7.5cm

Clinical Application

This straight, 7.5 cm haemostatic forceps is designed for controlled occlusion of small vessels and secure grasping of fine tissue during surgical dissection and hemostasis. Its short length and fine jaws make it well suited for procedures in confined or superficial operative fields where precise tip control is required, including minor surgical cases, soft-tissue dissection, and procedures that require frequent instrument engagement and release.

Design & Configuration

The straight geometry provides direct alignment between surgeon hand and tip for predictable force transmission and visibility in shallow wounds. Fine, serrated jaws deliver a secure purchase on vessel walls and delicate tissue without excessive bulk, while the ratchet lock permits reliable clamping at graduated tensions and frees the operator's hands when sustained occlusion is needed. The 7.5 cm overall length balances reach with tactile feedback for controlled manipulation in close quarters.
