Sklar Bose Tracheal Spreader, 2-3/4 Inch
A 2-3/4 inch spreader used to hold the tracheal incision open during tracheostomy, giving the surgeon clear access to the airway, for use in hospitals and surgical centers.
The Sklar Bose Tracheal Spreader is a small surgical instrument used during tracheostomy to hold the tracheal incision apart once it has been made, giving the surgeon a clear, stable opening through which to place the tracheostomy tube. At 2-3/4 inches overall, it is sized specifically for the tracheal opening rather than for general wound retraction, reflecting its role as a purpose-built instrument for this one step of the procedure.
This is a single configuration listing, sold as an individual instrument. It is intended for use by trained surgical staff performing tracheostomy, whether in the operating room or at the bedside under sterile technique, and is typically kept as a standing item on the tracheostomy instrument tray alongside trachea hooks and related airway instruments.
