Sklar Dunhill Artery Forceps, Straight
A five and a quarter inch artery forceps used to clamp blood vessels and control bleeding during surgery, available in straight or curved patterns.
The Sklar Dunhill Artery Forceps is a haemostatic instrument used to clamp a blood vessel and stop or control bleeding at a surgical site, either temporarily while the surgeon works or, with a locking ratchet, for longer periods during a procedure. The Dunhill pattern is recognised for its fine, precise jaws, making it well suited to smaller or more delicate vessels than a heavier general purpose haemostat would handle comfortably.
This listing covers two curvature variants, straight and curved, both at five and a quarter inches, letting the surgical team choose the approach that best matches the angle and depth of the vessel being clamped. Artery forceps of this kind are a routine part of general, vascular and thyroid surgery, used by surgeons and assistants throughout a procedure whenever bleeding needs to be controlled quickly.
As with other Sklar stainless steel instruments, it is designed for the repeated cleaning and sterilisation cycles of hospital instrument processing and for continued reuse across many cases.
