DeBakey Aortic Aneurysm Clamp Atrauma 26cm

Clinical Application

Designed for temporary occlusion of the aorta and other large-caliber vessels during open vascular procedures, this atraumatic DeBakey clamp is used to establish proximal or distal control in aortic aneurysm repair, bypass grafting, and other major vascular operations. The atraumatic jaw profile minimizes focal pressure on the intima, reducing the risk of vessel wall injury while maintaining reliable hemostasis during dissection and suturing.

Design & Configuration

The 26 cm shaft provides extended reach for deep thoracic, retroperitoneal, or abdominal exposure where shorter clamps are impractical. A ratcheted handle permits secure, incremental occlusion and stable maintenance of vessel control without continuous manual force. The DeBakey-style atraumatic jaws are configured to distribute clamping force over a broader surface area, which helps preserve endothelial integrity and facilitates atraumatic handling of fragile or diseased vessels.

Instrument Specifications

• Type: long vascular occluding clamp
• Pattern: DeBakey aortic aneurysm clamp (atraumatic)
• Overall length: 26 cm
• Jaw: atraumatic vascular jaws designed to minimize intimal trauma
• Typical use: proximal/distal aortic control, large-vessel occlusion in aneurysm repair and vascular surgery
• Construction: surgical-grade stainless steel, reusable

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance and repeated reprocessing. The instrument is engineered for reusable use in a sterile surgical environment; smooth transitions and robust box-lock/hinge areas facilitate cleaning and long service life when reprocessed according to facility protocols.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.

Brand Comparison

Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
