Clinical Application
Small, spring-action vascular clamp intended for temporary occlusion of small vessels and tubular structures. Commonly used during vascular procedures, microvascular anastomoses, tumor resections, and general surgical dissections where short-term hemostasis is required without crush injury to delicate vessel walls.
Design & Configuration
The short 7 cm length provides precise control in confined operative fields and reduces instrument profile within the wound. Spring-action (single-action) design delivers quick application and consistent closing force with one-handed placement and release. Atraumatic jaw geometry distributes pressure over a broader contact area to minimize intimal injury and preserve vessel patency during temporary occlusion.
