Rampley Sponge Holding Fcps S/J 25cm

Clinical Application

Designed to securely hold sponges and packs while minimizing tissue trauma, this instrument is used to introduce and retrieve gauze during wound packing, dressing changes, lavage, and deep-cavity procedures. The 25 cm length provides reach into deeper wounds or body cavities without sacrificing tactile control, making it useful in general surgery, minor procedures, emergency care, and obstetrics/gynecology settings.

Design & Configuration

Ring handles with a box-lock and ratchet allow one-handed control and stable clamping of sponges. The fenestrated sponge-holding jaws cradle gauze or swabs to reduce slippage while distributing pressure to avoid focal trauma. The shaft length provides working distance for packing and retrieval in deeper operative fields while maintaining ergonomics for the operator.
