Bose Tracheostomy Hook left 16cm

Clinical Application

Designed to assist airway surgeons during open tracheostomy and related neck procedures, this left-oriented tracheostomy hook provides focal retraction and elevation of the trachea, strap muscles, and soft tissues. It is used to expose tracheal rings for incision or cannula placement, maintain a clear field while placing or removing tracheostomy tubes, and help define stoma edges during stoma creation or revision.

Design & Configuration

The left orientation indicates the hook curves toward the left side, allowing the surgeon to engage and retract tissue on that side of the operative field without crossing hands or changing approach. The single-point hook geometry provides concentrated traction for controlled elevation of the trachea and selective retraction of small soft-tissue segments, reducing the need for broader retractors when localized exposure is required. At 16 cm length, the instrument offers working reach appropriate for adult neck anatomy while keeping the handle clear of the sterile field.
