Design & Configuration

The double-blunt configuration presents two rounded contact points that distribute traction forces and reduce tissue trauma compared with sharp-point hooks. The 18 cm working length offers reach for cervical exposure while maintaining tactile control at the proximal handle. A slim shaft profile improves visibility in the operative field and facilitates gentle manipulation of the trachea without obstructing access for suction or tube placement.
