Winter Placenta Fcps str Fig.2, 28cm

Clinical Application

Long, straight placenta forceps used in obstetric procedures to grasp and deliver the placenta or to retrieve retained placental tissue following vaginal delivery. The 28 cm working length provides reach into the uterine cavity while allowing the operator to maintain control at the perineum. Appropriate for use in delivery suites, operating rooms, and procedure areas where controlled traction and atraumatic engagement of placental tissue are required.

Design & Configuration

The straight, long-shank geometry promotes a direct line of approach for atraumatic engagement and controlled traction of the placenta. The Figure 2 Winter pattern denotes a standardized placenta forceps configuration designed for secure handling while minimizing tissue compression. The length balances reach with tactile feedback, enabling the clinician to apply measured traction and to manipulate tissue with precision during manual removal or assessment.
