Sklar Braun Grasping Forceps, 3 Prong
A 6-1/4 inch straight forceps with three blunt prongs, used to grasp and remove tissue or membranes during obstetric and gynecologic procedures, for use in hospitals and surgical centers.
The Sklar Braun Grasping Forceps features three blunt prongs on a straight 6-1/4 inch shaft, a design historically associated with obstetric use for grasping placental tissue, membranes or retained products during delivery-related procedures. The blunt prong tips are intended to take hold of soft tissue without the sharp puncture risk of a toothed instrument, while still providing enough grip to apply gentle traction.
This is a single configuration listing, sold as an individual instrument. It is intended for use by trained obstetric and gynecologic surgical staff during procedures such as manual removal of placenta or evacuation of retained tissue, and is typically kept on an obstetric emergency or delivery instrument tray, cleaned and sterilised between uses like other reusable surgical instruments.
