Clinical Application
Designed for orthopedic procedures where controlled levering and exposure of bone is required. Common uses include elevation of periosteum, retraction of soft tissues and muscles adjacent to bone, levering of small bone fragments, and creating working space during joint exposure in hip, knee and trauma surgery. The slim blade profile facilitates access in tight operative fields and between soft-tissue planes.
Design & Configuration
The instrument features a single-ended, low-profile lever blade with a tapered tip to permit precise engagement beneath periosteum or along a cortical surface. A length of 246 mm provides extended reach in deeper exposures while the 22 mm blade width balances surface contact for retraction with a narrow footprint to minimize soft-tissue obstruction. The rigid one-piece construction transfers controlled leverage from the handle to the blade for dependable elevation and retraction without flex.
