Foerster Swab Fcps Narrow cvd 25cm

Clinical Application

Designed for secure handling of sponges and packing material during open procedures, this narrow curved Foerster swab forceps is well suited for wound packing, sponge removal, blunt dissection and atraumatic manipulation of soft tissues. The 25 cm length provides reach for moderate-depth cavities while maintaining tactile control and visibility, making it useful in general surgery, gynecology, ENT and minor procedural settings.

Design & Configuration

The narrow, curved geometry facilitates access around anatomic structures and into confined or angled spaces where a straight instrument would obstruct the field. Fenestrated oval jaws provide broad contact with sponges to secure packing material without concentrated pressure points, reducing the risk of tissue trauma. The ring-handle design allows precise single-handed operation and manual control when placing or removing dressings and packs.
