Sklar Bruns Plaster Shears, Serrated 9-1/4 Inch
A serrated 9-1/4 inch shears used to cut through plaster casts and bandaging safely during orthopedic cast removal and wound care, for use in hospitals and surgical centers.
The Sklar Bruns Plaster Shears is a heavy duty cutting instrument designed to cut through plaster of Paris casts, padding and bandaging without injuring the skin underneath, a task that requires a stronger blade and different geometry than a standard surgical scissors. The serrated blade at 9-1/4 inches helps the shears grip and cut through hard, layered plaster material with fewer passes, reducing the time a patient's limb needs to be handled during cast removal.
This is a single configuration listing, sold as an individual instrument. It is intended for use by trained orthopedic and emergency clinical staff performing cast removal or adjustment, and as a reusable heavy duty instrument it is cleaned and sterilised between patients, remaining a standard item in orthopedic casting rooms and emergency departments.
