DeBakey Vascular Clamp Atrauma 17cm

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic vessel occlusion, this DeBakey vascular clamp provides secure temporary control of medium-to-large arteries and veins during dissection, anastomosis, grafting, and bypass procedures. The atraumatic jaw profile distributes pressure along the vessel wall to minimize intimal injury, making it appropriate for use in vascular, cardiothoracic, transplant, and select general surgical cases where vessel preservation is important.

Design & Configuration

The clamp's DeBakey-style jaws feature longitudinal ridges that grasp tissue without focal crushing, reducing the risk of intimal damage compared with toothed forceps. A ratchet locking handle maintains consistent occlusion pressure without continuous hand tension, and the 17 cm overall length offers moderate reach for open-field operations while retaining precise control at the tips. This configuration supports atraumatic clamping in confined operative fields and during delicate vessel manipulation.
