Clinical Application
Designed to provide reliable hemostasis and tissue control, this half-curved Heiss hemostatic forceps is used to occlude small-to-medium calibre vessels, clamp pedicles, and assist with blunt dissection. The 20 cm length delivers extended reach for procedures in deeper cavities or when working through limited access incisions. Common uses include general surgery, gynecology, ENT, vascular and soft-tissue procedures where controlled, sustained clamping is required.
Design & Configuration
The half-curved geometry concentrates curvature in the distal portion of the instrument, allowing the tip to approach vessels and tissue planes at an angle while keeping the shaft profile lower above the field. This configuration improves visibility and access when encircling or passing around structures. The ratchet lock provides hands-free sustained occlusion; precision serrations on the jaws secure tissue and vessels to prevent slippage during ligation or cautery preparation.
