DeBakey Atraumatic Tissue Fcps 2.7mm, 20cm

Clinical Application

Optimized for atraumatic handling of delicate tissues and vessels, this instrument is used where low-profile, precise grasping is required. The narrow 2.7 mm tip provides controlled contact area for manipulating vessels, sutures, and friable soft tissue during vascular, cardiothoracic, and general surgical procedures. The forceps is suitable for tissue handling during anastomosis, mobilization of vessels, delicate dissection, and any application where minimizing crush injury is a priority.

Design & Configuration

The spring-action thumb forceps design gives direct tactile feedback and one-handed control for fine manipulation. The DeBakey atraumatic jaw employs longitudinal, fine serrations that distribute pressure along the tissue rather than concentrating it, reducing trauma to vascular and soft tissues. The 20 cm overall length provides reach and working distance for deep fields while maintaining precise tip control; the 2.7 mm tip width offers a low-profile grip for confined operative sites.
