Deaver Fiber Optic Retractor With Light Guide Blades

The Deaver fiber optic retractor combines the classic curved Deaver blade with built-in light. It holds tissue back and lights the deep field at once.

Eleven blade sizes

Blades range from 13 x 200 mm up to 75 x 300 mm. Besides, narrow blades suit tight spaces. Meanwhile, the widest one holds back the liver or bowel.

Why light a Deaver blade

Deep abdominal fields are hard to light from above. Here, light starts at the blade. Therefore, the surgeon sees deep structures clearly.

Typical procedures

General, vascular and gynaecological surgeons use it. It also suits bariatric and pelvic work. Additionally, many teams keep three or four widths.

Holding the Deaver fiber optic retractor

The assistant holds the handle and pulls gently along the curve. Meanwhile, a moist pack under the blade protects tissue. Furthermore, short adjustments keep the view steady.

Light connection

The guide accepts a standard light cable with an adaptor. Check your light source fitting before ordering. Then connect the cable before the case begins.
