Clinical Application
Designed as replacement blades for the Ricard retractor system, this pair of blades provides broad, stable soft-tissue retraction to maintain surgical exposure during procedures. Use where a wide contact surface is needed to retract skin, subcutaneous tissue, or muscle gently and evenly—common in general, plastic/reconstructive, and soft-tissue procedures. Supplied as a matched pair for opposing retraction or to create a standardized exposure along a wound or incision.
Design & Configuration
The flat, rectangular geometry with a 60x80 mm contact area delivers a wide-bearing surface that distributes retraction forces over a larger area to minimize focal pressure and reduce tissue trauma. Paired blades allow symmetric retraction and consistent visualization of the operative field. Blade edges and mounting interface are configured to engage Ricard-style retractor arms securely, permitting reliable positioning and adjustment during the case.
