Clinical Application
Used to provide temporary, atraumatic occlusion of the stomach and small or large intestine during open gastrointestinal procedures. Commonly employed for segmental resections, anastomoses, enterotomies, gastric surgeries and contamination control—its design permits secure lumen control while minimizing crush injury to the bowel wall and preserving mesenteric blood flow.
Design & Configuration
The twin-clamp geometry features two parallel jaws that distribute compressive force across a broader surface area than single-blade clamps. This reduces focal pressure on the bowel, helping to maintain tissue viability while reliably occluding luminal contents. At 36 cm overall length, the instrument provides extended reach for deeper abdominal exposure and improved working distance for the surgeon and assistant.
Instrument Specifications
- Instrument type: Intestinal / stomach clamp
- Pattern / model: Haberer twin clamp
- Configuration: Parallel/twin jaw occluding design
- Length: 36 cm
- Typical use: Temporary occlusion of bowel and gastric lumen during GI procedures
- Reusable construction
Material & Construction
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel and engineered for repeated use. The jaw surfaces are shaped to provide broad contact with tissue to minimize shear and crushing. Construction emphasizes corrosion resistance and precision fit for reliable alignment and consistent occlusion over repeated sterilization cycles.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
