Spencerwells Artery Fcps S/J str 23cm

Clinical Application

Spencer-Wells artery forceps in a 23 cm straight configuration are used to occlude arteries and control bleeding during open surgical procedures. The instrument is suited for general surgery, vascular procedures, obstetrics/gynecology, and other operative settings where firm, atraumatic vessel control is required. The 23 cm length provides additional reach for deeper operative fields while retaining tactile control at the tips.

Design & Configuration

The Spencer-Wells pattern features short jaws with transverse serrations that secure vessels without excessive compression of surrounding tissue. The straight alignment of the jaws and shanks allows precise tip placement along vessel course and in confined or deep wounds. A standard ratchet locking mechanism maintains consistent clamping pressure, freeing the assistant or surgeon to perform concurrent tasks while maintaining hemostasis.
