Clinical Application
Curved Kelly hemostatic forceps at 22 cm provide a balance of reach and control for occluding medium-sized blood vessels, achieving temporary hemostasis, and grasping or dissecting soft tissue. The curved profile facilitates access around structures and into deeper operative fields—useful in general surgery, OB/GYN, vascular procedures, trauma settings, and routine OR or ambulatory cases where reliable vessel control is required.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry directs the jaws toward the line of sight while keeping the operator's hands clear of the field, improving access in confined or angled spaces. Kelly-style transverse serrations along the jaw provide secure gripping of tissue and vessels without excessive crushing surface. The integrated ratchet allows the instrument to lock at incremental tensions for sustained occlusion, freeing an assistant's hands and maintaining consistent hemostasis during suture placement or dissection.
