Weldon (Mini Glover) Buldog Clamp cvd 4.5cm

Clinical Application

Mini curved bulldog clamps provide temporary, atraumatic occlusion of small vessels and ducts. They are used to achieve rapid vessel control during microvascular, vascular, cardiac, ophthalmic and general surgical procedures where a low-profile, precise occlusive instrument is required. The compact 4.5 cm length and reduced jaw profile permit targeted control of small-caliber arteries, veins and pedicles during dissection, anastomosis and short-term hemostasis without prolonged tissue compression.

Design & Configuration

The curved, spring-loaded configuration delivers consistent radial compression and allows single-handed application and release. The Mini Glover jaw geometry produces a low-profile clamping surface that improves visibility and access around anastomosis sites and in confined operative fields. The curved orientation helps align the clamp with vessel planes and provides clearance for sutures, grafts and nearby structures while minimizing instrument bulk.
