Clinical Application
Designed to provide secure, atraumatic temporary occlusion of blood vessels during open vascular, cardiac, thoracic, and general surgical procedures. The 24 cm length gives surgeons extended reach for working in deeper operative fields while maintaining fine control of vessel compression for proximal or distal control, anastomosis preparation, and hemostasis during dissection.
Design & Configuration
The instrument's long shank increases access into confined or deep cavities without excessive hand intrusion into the field. Atraumatic jaw contact distributes pressure to minimize endothelial injury while maintaining reliable occlusion. A positive locking mechanism holds the clamp closed without continuous manual force, freeing the operator or assistant and reducing fatigue during longer procedures.
