Clinical Application
This cannula is designed to deliver controlled irrigation and flushing to vascular lumens and operative fields. The 4 mm irrigation tip provides a focused, low-to-moderate flow stream useful for clearing blood, loose thrombus, and debris during anastomosis, graft preparation, vessel repair, and other open vascular or general surgical procedures. The 15 cm shaft length permits access into deeper operative sites or across surgical exposures without the need to reposition the surgeon’s hand frequently.
Design & Configuration
The small-bore Schmid configuration concentrates irrigation flow at the tip for targeted lavage while minimizing spray and unintended tissue exposure. The 15 cm overall length balances reach with tactile control at the handle, enabling precise placement of the tip within a vessel or surgical cavity. A smooth, rounded irrigation outlet reduces endothelial contact trauma and facilitates atraumatic introduction into lumens.
