Clinical Application
Designed for controlled temporary occlusion of intestinal segments, this Stone Watt pattern clamp is used to isolate bowel during resections, anastomoses, enterotomies and foreign-body removal. The atraumatic jaw geometry minimizes crush injury to the bowel wall while providing a secure seal to reduce luminal spillage and maintain a clear field during suturing and stapling.
Design & Configuration
The compact 7.5 cm length offers precise control and improved maneuverability in confined abdominal cavities or minimally invasive access sites. A ratcheted locking handle permits hands-free maintenance of occlusion at a set closure force, reducing operator fatigue and allowing assistants to manage exposure or instruments. The Stone Watt jaw profile is intended to balance secure occlusion with tissue preservation—important when preserving mucosal integrity for a high-quality anastomosis.
