  • Used for holding and manipulating fine needles and sutures during delicate, specialized surgical procedures, particularly in thoracic and cardiovascular surgery

Uses

  • Intracardiac procedures:
    • Specifically designed for use in heart surgeries and related cardiovascular operations
  • Precise suturing:
    • Used to securely hold very fine needles and sutures for precise stitching in delicate tissues
  • Specialized surgery:
    • Applicable in other delicate fields such as plastic surgery, neurosurgery, and veterinary applications where fine suturing is required

Features

  • Tungsten Carbide (TC) Inserts:
    • The jaws are fitted with extremely hard and durable tungsten carbide inserts, identified by the gold-plated finger rings
  • Extra Delicate Serrated Jaws:
    • The jaws are extra delicate with fine, pyramid-shaped teeth (approximately 4000 teeth per square inch) to provide a non-slip grip on small needles and sutures
  • Suture Protection:
    • The edges around the outside of the jaws and the box lock are chamfered (beveled) to prevent accidental cutting or fraying of fine suture material
  • Length:
    • The instrument is approximately 6 inches (15.2cm)
  • Material:
    • Crafted from high-quality German stainless steel
  • Locking Mechanism:
    • Features a reliable ratchet lock to maintain clamping pressure
  • Satin Finish:
    • Has a glare-reducing satin finish

Benefits

  • Superior Durability:
    • Tungsten carbide is one of the hardest steels used for surgical instruments, which significantly extends the service life and resistance to wear compared to standard stainless steel
  • Enhanced Precision and Control:
    • The fine, serrated jaws provide a secure, positive grip on small needles, which is vital for high-precision suturing in delicate operations, minimizing errors
  • Long-Term Value:
    • As a high-quality, reusable, and autoclavable instrument, it offers economic benefits over time for medical facilities due to its extended lifespan
  • Minimized Tissue/Suture Damage:
    • The careful design of the jaw edges protects both delicate tissues and fine suture materials during procedures, contributing to better patient outcomes
