Clinical Application
Designed for controlled temporary occlusion of blood vessels where preservation of the endothelial surface is critical. Commonly used during microvascular repair, neurosurgical dissections, and other procedures that require atraumatic control of arterial or venous flow. Useful for isolating small- to medium-caliber vessels during anastomosis, vessel clipping, or hemorrhage control without crushing vessel walls.
Design & Configuration
The atraumatic jaw geometry provides secure occlusion while minimizing tissue compression and endothelial damage. The 15 cm length offers extended reach for working in deep or confined operative fields, improving access to vessels located at depth without crowding the surgical site. A slim profile and fine distal tips facilitate precise placement on small vessels and around fine operative structures.
Instrument Specifications
