Clinical Application
Angled, long-reach hemostatic forceps designed to control bleeding and maintain hemostasis during open surgical procedures. The Green Armytage pattern provides broad clamping contact for compressing bleeding tissue and vessels, stabilizing tissue for suture placement, and facilitating blunt dissection or retraction in confined or deep operative fields. Commonly used in general surgery, gynecologic and plastic procedures where larger tissue bites and a secure clamp are required.
Design & Configuration
The angled shaft geometry improves access and line-of-sight in deep or narrow wounds, allowing the surgeon to approach tissue obliquely without obstructing the field. A 20 cm length offers extended reach for deeper anatomy while retaining tactile control. The ratchet box-lock provides reliable, adjustable locking force for sustained hemostasis without continuous manual pressure.
