Clinical Application
Designed to be mounted to a Braastad retractor system, this pair of 65 x 65 mm blades provides stable, hands‑free retraction to maintain operative exposure. The square footprint delivers a predictable area of tissue support, useful in procedures that require symmetric retraction of skin, subcutaneous tissue, and superficial soft tissue layers. Common applications include minor open procedures and cases where a compact, evenly distributed retraction surface improves visualization and workflow.
Design & Configuration
The matched pair configuration allows symmetric retraction on opposite sides of an incision or wound. The 65 x 65 mm footprint balances surface contact with access, helping distribute retraction forces to reduce focal pressure on tissues. Blade geometry (low profile with a broad contact area) minimizes obstruction of the surgical field while providing secure engagement with the retractor frame. Smooth, atraumatic contact surfaces reduce tissue snagging and facilitate atraumatic handling during placement and removal.
