Cooley Rib Spreader infant 15x20x100mm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled retraction of the infant chest wall during pediatric thoracic procedures. Provides stable separation of adjacent ribs to improve visualization and access for thoracotomy, pulmonary procedures, and selected congenital cardiac exposures in neonates and infants where a compact, low-profile retractor is required.

Design & Configuration

Compact blade geometry and an infant configuration minimize the instrument's footprint inside the chest, reducing compressive force on ribs and surrounding soft tissue. The Cooley pattern is selected for its predictable blade alignment and incremental opening behavior, allowing the surgeon to obtain and maintain the required field with fine control while limiting trauma to fragile pediatric rib structures.
