Busch Umbilical Cord Scissors 16cm

Clinical Application

Designed for use in obstetric and neonatal settings, these scissors are intended for controlled transection of the umbilical cord after delivery and for procedures that require precise cutting near cord clamps. The instrument's form supports safe cord division in both vaginal and cesarean deliveries and can be used during cord blood collection or other immediate postpartum interventions where accurate, reliable cutting is required.

Design & Configuration

Ring handles provide a secure, familiar grip for surgeons and delivery staff, enabling fine control during the cut. At 16 cm overall length the instrument offers a balance of reach and tactile feedback—long enough to clear the surgical field while short enough for precise manipulation close to the clamp or tissue. The scissor geometry and blade alignment are configured to produce a clean transection with minimal tearing, supporting efficient workflow in high-volume delivery settings.
