DeBakey Bulldog clamp Atrauma cvd 12cm

Clinical Application

This spring-loaded DeBakey bulldog clamp provides atraumatic temporary vascular occlusion for procedures requiring precise control of blood flow. It is commonly used in cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, peripheral vascular and microvascular procedures, and general surgical cases where delicate handling of vessels is required for anastomosis, hemostasis or segmental isolation.

Design & Configuration

The curved, atraumatic DeBakey jaw profile distributes clamping force along a broader surface to minimize intimal injury while maintaining secure vessel occlusion. The spring-loaded bulldog mechanism allows rapid application and release with one-handed control, which is useful in confined operative fields. The 12 cm curved shaft provides reach into deeper or narrow operative sites while preserving tactile feedback for fine vascular work.
