Clinical Application
A low-profile handheld retractor designed to provide atraumatic retraction of superficial soft tissue and wound edges. The 145 x 25 mm blade offers broad yet slim exposure useful in general, plastic, vascular and orthopedic procedures where controlled, localized retraction is required. The integrated light carrier permits placement of an illumination accessory adjacent to the field to enhance visualization in narrow or deep incisions without requiring an additional assistant-held light.
Design & Configuration
The single-blade geometry with a 145 x 25 mm footprint distributes retraction force across a broad surface while maintaining a slim profile to minimize tissue compression. The 24 cm overall length provides reach into deeper incisions while preserving tactile control for the operator. The incorporated light carrier positions an illumination accessory close to the blade edge, aligning light with the retracted field to reduce shadows and improve visualization during dissection and hemostasis.
