Sklar Bill Traction Handle for Forceps
An accessory traction handle from Sklar designed to fit standard obstetrical forceps, giving the obstetrician additional grip and controlled pulling force during assisted delivery.
The Sklar Bill Traction Handle is an accessory instrument designed for use with standard obstetrical forceps rather than as a standalone tool. It attaches to the forceps handles to give the obstetrician a firmer, more ergonomic grip when applying traction during an assisted vaginal delivery. By extending the point of contact and distributing the pulling force more evenly, the handle can make it easier to apply steady, controlled traction rather than relying on grip strength alone through the forceps handles directly.
This kind of accessory is used in labour and delivery units by obstetricians who use forceps as part of their standard toolkit for complicated deliveries. As with other reusable stainless instruments, it is cleaned and sterilized between uses and stored with the obstetric instrument set it belongs to.
Maternity units and hospitals across the UAE and GCC stock accessories of this kind alongside their obstetrical forceps.
