Clinical Application
This clamp is intended for open gastrointestinal and general surgery procedures where controlled occlusion of the bowel lumen is required. The fenestrated jaw design provides secure purchase on intestinal tissue while reducing focal crushing, making it useful during small bowel and colonic resections, segmental clamping prior to anastomosis, and bowel content control during enterotomies.
Design & Configuration
The curved 29 cm geometry gives extended reach into the abdominal cavity and improved approach angles around mesenteric folds and deep operative fields. Fenestrated jaws distribute compressive force across the bowel wall to minimize tissue trauma and slippage. A locking mechanism provides reliable, hands‑free occlusion once engaged, allowing the surgical team to proceed with resection or repair while lumen control is maintained.
