Cooley Derra Anastomosis Pediatric Clamp 18cm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide secure, atraumatic occlusion of small vessels and delicate tissues during suture-based anastomosis in pediatric patients. Commonly used in pediatric cardiac and vascular procedures to control blood flow locally while permitting precise placement of sutures and visualization of the anastomotic site.

Design & Configuration

The pediatric configuration and 18 cm length balance fine control with sufficient reach for confined operative fields such as the mediastinum or neonatal thorax. The Cooley Derra pattern is optimized to exert uniform, gentle pressure across the jaw faces to reduce vessel wall trauma while maintaining a stable, slip-resistant grip on tissue during suture placement. The slender shaft and compact jaw geometry improve access in small anatomy and crowded operative fields.
