Castaneda Neonatal clamp very deli. cvd 12cm

Clinical Application

This curved, very delicate neonatal clamp is designed for atraumatic occlusion and handling of small vessels and fragile tissues encountered in neonatal and pediatric procedures. Its 12 cm length provides close control in confined operative fields common to neonatal surgery — for example umbilical vessel ligation, delicate vascular control, and precise tissue approximation during neonatal general, vascular, or thoracic procedures.

Design & Configuration

The curved geometry improves line-of-sight and access around structures in tight anatomy, allowing the jaw tips to approach vessels tangentially for controlled occlusion. Very delicate, fine jaws minimize crush injury to small-caliber vessels and thin tissues, while the ratcheted locking mechanism gives reproducible, incremental closure and tactile feedback so surgeons can maintain secure hold without excessive compression.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Hemostatic/occluding clamp
• Pattern / model: Castaneda neonatal clamp
• Configuration: Curved, very delicate tips, ratcheted locking
• Length: 12 cm
• Tip / jaw: Fine, atraumatic profile for small vessels and tissues
• Typical use: Neonatal/pediatric vascular control and delicate tissue handling
• Reusable surgical instrument (stainless steel construction)

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel with precision-ground jaws and hinge for consistent alignment and smooth operation. The delicate jaw geometry is manufactured to preserve edge and profile during routine reprocessing. Designed and finished for repeated sterilization and long-term reuse when maintained according to facility reprocessing protocols.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
