Bainbridge Tonsil Hemostatic Forceps

Description

Bainbridge Tonsil Hemostatic Forceps

Bainbridge tonsil forceps are hemostatic forceps for tonsil surgery. Surgeons use them to clamp bleeding vessels in the tonsil bed and to hold tissue during dissection.

Controlling bleeding

Tonsillectomy leaves a raw bed with small vessels. So the surgeon needs a clamp that reaches into the throat and closes precisely. These forceps do that job while the mouth gag holds the view open.

Two lengths

We stock 15 cm and 18.5 cm lengths. The shorter one suits smaller patients or shallow access. Meanwhile, the longer one reaches the tonsil bed with more room for the hand.

Curved or straight

Both lengths come Curved or Straight, which makes four options. A curved jaw follows the shape of the tonsil fossa. A straight jaw, on the other hand, gives a direct line to the vessel.

Pairing on a tonsil tray

Surgeons often keep two or more clamps ready during tonsillectomy. For example, one clamp can hold a vessel while the surgeon ties or treats it. Tonsil scissors and a tonsil knife often sit on the same tray.

Caring for your Bainbridge tonsil forceps

Straight after the case, open the jaws under running water. Then brush the jaw faces, working the bristles into the box joint. Dry the forceps well, and sterilize them in the open or unlocked position.
