Sklar Payr Ligature Conductor, Straight, 8-1/2 Inch
A straight 8-1/2 inch ligature conductor from Sklar used to guide suture material safely around vessels and tissue during general surgical procedures.
The Sklar Payr Ligature Conductor is a surgical instrument used to guide a length of suture material around a vessel or tissue bundle so it can be tied off safely during an operation. Its shape lets the surgeon pass the tip around the target structure while keeping fingers clear of the surgical field, a technique used regularly in general, vascular and gynaecological surgery whenever a vessel needs ligation.
The straight profile of this instrument suits situations where a direct approach to the structure is possible, as opposed to a curved conductor used when the surgeon needs to work around an obstruction or angle. Measuring 8-1/2 inches, it provides enough reach for most abdominal and pelvic surgical fields.
This listing includes two variants within the Payr conductor range. Ligature conductors of this kind are a routine part of general surgical instrument trays and are used across many procedure types wherever vessels or tissue bundles must be tied off during surgery.
