US Army Navy Retractor, Stainless Steel
The Bionex US Army Navy retractor is made from autoclavable stainless steel, used by surgeons for straightforward, reliable tissue retraction during general surgical procedures every day.
The US Army Navy retractor from Bionex is a simple, double ended hand held retractor made from stainless steel, designed for easy usage during general surgical procedures. One of the most commonly used retractors in general surgery, it is typically held by an assistant to pull back skin, fat and soft tissue at the edge of an incision, giving the surgeon a clearer, unobstructed view of the operative field.
Its straightforward, flattened blade shape is well suited to superficial retraction where a simpler tool is more practical than a self-retaining or specialty retractor. Being a professional medical grade instrument made from stainless steel, it is fully autoclavable and can be reprocessed and sterilised between cases many times over its working life, which is typical of the reusable retractors kept in a general surgery instrument tray.
This retractor is used across general surgery, obstetrics, gynecology and other specialties by surgeons, surgical assistants and scrub nurses whenever basic soft tissue retraction is needed during a procedure.
