Sklar Dardik Atraumatic Forceps, Angled 15 Degrees
Angled atraumatic forceps used in vascular surgery to gently grasp blood vessels and delicate tissue without causing crush injury during dissection.
The Sklar Dardik Atraumatic Forceps are vascular surgical forceps designed to grip vessels and delicate tissue without crushing or tearing them. The jaws are angled at 15 degrees, which helps the surgeon approach vessels from a favourable angle during dissection, anastomosis and vessel mobilisation, and the reference size in this range measures 6-3/4 inches overall.
Atraumatic forceps of this type are a standard component of vascular and cardiovascular surgery sets, used by vascular surgeons, cardiac surgeons and general surgeons whenever vessel walls need to be handled directly. The gentle gripping surface reduces the risk of intimal damage, which is important for preserving vessel integrity in procedures such as bypass grafting or vessel repair.
This listing covers ten available variants, giving surgical teams a choice of configuration to match different vessel sizes and procedure types within the same product family. Facilities stocking a vascular instrument tray commonly keep several sizes of atraumatic forceps on hand, and the Dardik pattern is a recognised option for that purpose.
