DeBakey-Gerald Tissue Fcps Atrauma 1.2mm 15cm

Clinical Application

Fine atraumatic grasping of delicate tissues and vessels where minimal crush and maximal tactile feedback are required. Commonly used during vascular, cardiothoracic, neurosurgical and microsurgical procedures for suture handling, vessel manipulation, atraumatic tissue retraction and precise tissue approximation.

Design & Configuration

The slender 1.2 mm atraumatic tip provides precise point-of-contact control while distributing pressure across a broader jaw surface to reduce tissue trauma. The 15 cm length offers a balance of reach and control for deep and superficial operative fields. As a thumb-held, non-locking forceps, it preserves tactile sensitivity for delicate maneuvers such as vessel handling and suture placement.
