Elevator

Description

Elevator

This orthopedic bone elevator is a general instrument for lifting tissue from bone. Buyers can pick a 16 cm or an 18 cm body to suit the exposure.

A general-purpose tool

Not every case needs a named pattern. In many cases, a plain, reliable elevator does the job well. This one lifts periosteum, frees adhesions and levers tissue aside.

Two lengths

The 16 cm version suits hands, feet and the face. Meanwhile, the 18 cm version adds a little reach for the forearm and lower leg. Both feel light and balanced.

Using an orthopedic bone elevator

Slide the tip under the tissue at an incision. Then lift gently while keeping contact with bone. As a result, the layer comes away cleanly.

Where it fits on the tray

Keep one beside your main raspatory for detailed work. Then switch to it when space gets tight. It is also a useful spare.

A general orthopedic bone elevator for many tasks

Because it has no special shape, this elevator adapts to many situations. For example, it can clear tissue from a plate edge or lift a flap of periosteum. Consequently, it is a sensible spare on most trays.

Care

The promise on your elevator

If each elevator develops a build flaw, you still have three years against manufacturing defects. Prior to dispatch, our Atlanta team studies every elevator unhurriedly. Some trays also hold the Langenbeck elevator. A spare elevator on the shelf helps on busy days. Surgical instrument steel follows a known standard, which is ASTM F899.
