Paton Double Ended Spatula
w/ groove, 6.0 mm x 15.0 mm & 2.0 mm x 31.0 mm, end of blade angled up 7.0 mm, 5-3/4" (14.5 cm)Â Paton Double Ended Spatula is a commonly used instrument in Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) procedures. The spatula is used to handle and manipulate the delicate corneal epithelium during the surgery. The double-ended design features two different blade sizes depending on surgical need.
Paufique Graft Knife
1.6 mm x 1.75 mm angled blade Paufique Graft Knife is a commonly used tool in keratoplasty operations. The knife features a sharp rounded blade and is used to dissect the deep stromal tissue of the cornea parallel to Descemet's membrane. After this incision, the anterior lamellar kertoplasty may proceed.
Paufique Suture Forceps
1x2 strong teeth, w/ platform, 3-1/2" (9.0 cm)Â Paufique Suture Forceps are a general purpose tool used in ophthalmologic operations. The wide angled teeth are useful in grasping the suturing needle during wound closure for a variety of operations. The built in tying platform allows the surgeon the handle both tissue and sutures with the same instrument.
Peripheral Vascular Clamp
Peripheral Vascular Clamp
curved, 6" (15.0 cm)
DeBakey Peripheral Vascular Clamp is designed for use in cardiothoracic surgical procedures where it is necessary to block or occlude blood flow. Although it is a multi-purpose instrument is is best suited for clamping of peripheral vessels. The slightly curved jaws as well as the jaw teeth allow the clamp to remain securely fastened at the site where it is affixed through the procedure.
Peripheral Vascular Clamp
Peripheral Vascular Clamp
3.0 cm long straight jaws, 8" (20.0 cm)
DeBakey Multi-Purpose Peripheral Vascular Clamp is ideally crafted to be an all-purpose clamp for use during cardiothoracic surgical procedures to clamp peripheral vessels. This instrument is ideal for clamping any vessels during surgery for a number of reasons one of the most important being to occlude blood flow through vessels to prevent the patient from losing an excessive amount of blood. The slight angle of the blade allows the instrument handle to be slightly out of the surgical field so as to keep that as clear as possible for increased visibility.
Pierse Eye Speculum
blades 11.0 mm wide, spread 20.0 mm Pierse Eye speculum is a commonly used tool when visualization of the globe is desired during routine ophthalmologic examination. The lightweight design allows for quick palpebral opening and inspecting of the anterior ocular surface. The speculum is equipped with 11.0 mm wide blades and a 20.0 mm spread.
Pierse Fixation Forceps
3-3/4" (9.5 cm)Â Pierse Fixation Forceps are ideal for holding in place tissue during ophthalmologic procedures. The delicate teeth on the forceps are ideal for handling and fixing fine tissue such as the cornea without crushing. Two different tooth sizes are available on the forceps depending on surgical preference.
Pierse-Type Colibri Forceps
pierse-type tips, 3-1/8" (8.0 cm)Â Pierse-Type Colibri Forceps are an excellent instrument during corneal surgery. The curved tip aides in grasping corneal tissue with minimal trauma or crushing, and are also useful for corneo-scleral suturing. Two different tooth sizes are available with the forceps depending on surgical preference.
Polack Double Corneal Forceps
prongs 5.0 mm from angle to tip, 1x2 teeth, flat handle, 2-3/4" (7.0 cm)Â Polack Double Corneal Forceps are a specialty tool used in operations of the cornea. The forceps are to be used for the first corneal suture in a keratoplasty. The graft is gently grasped by the fine toothed forceps at the junction between the epithelium and the stroma. The spread between the tips is 1.0 mm, while the serrated handle ensures a firm grip during the procedure.
Popliteal Anastomosis Clamp
Popliteal Anastomosis Clamp
debakey jaws, jaws 4.0 cm, 7-1/4" (18.5 cm)
Dale Improved Femoral Popliteal Anastomosis clamp is ideally suited for use in cardiothoracic surgical procedures. This is a highly versatile vascular clamp that can be used in procedures requiring a femoral popliteal anastomosis. Additionally, this clamp can be used when a broken-back small vascular clamp is required. This instrument is hand-crafted by certified instrument makers to conform to the highest standards in instrumentation.
Popliteal Clamp
Popliteal Clamp
Dale Femoral Popliteal Clamp is created for use in clamping of the femoral artery which later transitions to become the popliteal artery as it travels down the leg making this vascular clamp useful in cardiothoracic surgical procedures. This clamp features a hook shaped curved jaw creating a design that allows optimal clamping of the vessel while keeping the handle and remainder of the tool out of the surgical field. This instrument is available in three sizes: small, medium and large to accommodate a variety of patients and vessel sizes.
