Baby Overholt Artery Fcps cvd 13.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precise vascular control in situations that require fine, controlled clamping—particularly pediatric and small-vessel procedures. The instrument is suited for occluding small arteries and veins, blunt dissection in narrow or deep cavities, and atraumatic handling of delicate tissues in specialties such as pediatric surgery, plastic and reconstructive surgery, ENT, and ophthalmic procedures where space is limited.

Design & Configuration

The curved geometry provides improved access and visualization around structures and into confined anatomical corridors. Narrow, fine jaws concentrate clamping force for reliable vessel occlusion while minimizing collateral tissue trauma. The locking ratchet and secure box-lock provide sustained closure for hemostasis and allow the surgeon to maintain grip without continuous manual pressure. At 13.5 cm, the length balances reach into deeper fields with tactile control at the tips.
