DeBakey Reynolds Anastomosis Clamp 16.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed for atraumatic occlusion and temporary control of vessels during anastomosis and suturing, this clamp is used in cardiovascular, peripheral vascular and transplant procedures where precise, gentle handling of vascular tissue is required. The instrument secures vessel ends and maintains lumen alignment while sutures are placed, reducing the need for repeated handling and minimizing intimal trauma.

Design & Configuration

The DeBakey Reynolds geometry combines an atraumatic jaw profile with longitudinal serrations to distribute clamping pressure along the vessel wall rather than concentrating it at points. The ratcheted handle allows graded closure and secure retention of the chosen tension, enabling the assistant or surgeon to maintain consistent occlusion during delicate suture placement. The 16.5 cm length provides a balance of reach and tactile control suited to open vascular procedures.
