Clinical Application
This detachable retractor blade is intended to be mounted on a Kirschner or Franz retractor frame to provide controlled soft-tissue retraction and wound exposure. The 60 x 85 mm blade offers a moderate surface area suitable for small- to medium-sized incisions and surgical sites encountered in general surgery, orthopedics, plastic surgery, and hand procedures. When engaged with the retractor frame, the blade maintains consistent exposure to facilitate visualization, instrument access, irrigation, and suturing.
Design & Configuration
The flat, rectangular geometry delivers broad, even distribution of retraction force across the wound margin, helping to minimize focal pressure on tissues. The detachable configuration allows quick exchange or removal intraoperatively for site-specific blades or sizes and supports sterile reprocessing between cases. The blade is formed to engage the frame securely to resist rotation or slippage during use, preserving a stable operating field.
